Flexible retaining wall design

The importance of precise retaining wall analysis and design

Retaining structures are commonly required to accommodate level differences on sites or to support excavations, shafts, embankments, abutments, and similar.

Precise retaining wall analysis and design is essential when retaining structures must reliably hold back large volumes of soil across a range of load conditions. A rigorous assessment of cantilever stability, displacement, shear forces, and bending moments helps you understand how the wall will perform and supports decisions that affect both local and global stability.

Geotechnical software for flexible retaining wall analysis

Oasys retaining wall software is designed to tackle a wide range of retaining problems involving structures that play an important role in holding back tonnes of soil.

Geotechnical engineers understand how long calculations can take when designing a wall. Oasys software reduces this time with fast calculations and analysis, helping you design and analyse nearly any load condition across retaining walls and common wall types.

After the wall has been designed, Oasys retaining wall analysis software checks cantilever stability, displacement, shear forces, and bending moments within the wall helping you assess both local and global stability.
