Additional calculations may have to be performed including and not limiting to global stability analysis
(by Geotechnical Engineer), seismic forces (by Seismic Engineer) and hydraulic forces (by Hydraulic
Engineer). Please check local, State and Federal requirements. The calculator assumes drained uniformed
retained and foundation soil properties. The calculations should be reviewed, checked and certified by a
Professional Engineer. To the best of our knowledge, the calculator and information was prepared accurately.
Terra Aqua is not responsible for the reliability and validity of the geotechnical parameters assumed in the
calculations. The calculator is intended to provide design assistance to the engineer for the purpose of
designing with Terra Aqua products.
