Concrete Floodway Design Based on ACI 350-06 & ACI 318-08
INPUT DATA & DESIGN SUMMARY
CONCRETE STRENGTH fc' = 3 ksi
REBAR YIELD STRESS fy = 60 ksi
LATERAL SOIL PRESSURE Pa = 45 pcf
(equivalent fluid pressure)
BACKFILL WEIGHT gb = 110 pcf
SURCHARGE WEIGHT ws = 50 psf
SEISMIC GROUND SHAKING PE = 0 psf /ft, ASD
(soil pressure, if no report 35SDS suggested. )
CHANNEL DEPTH H = 6 ft
THICKNESS OF WALL tw = 6 in
THICKNESS OF SLAB ts = 6 in
SLAB TRANS REBARS # 3 @ 10 in o.c. at mid
WALL VERTICAL REBARS # 3 @ 10 in o.c.
WALL BAR LOCATION (1=at middle, 2=at each face) 1 at middle
LAP LENGTH Ls = 36 in
SLAB THICKER DISTANCE D = 4 ft [THE CHANNEL DESIGN IS ADEQUATE.]

ANALYSIS
DESIGN CRITERIA
1. THE CRITERICAL DESIGN, FOR REBAR AT MIDDLE OR EQUAL OF EACH FACE, IS CHANNEL WALL AT INWARD
SOIL PRESSURE BEFORE RESTRAINED AT TOP AND CHANNEL FILLED.
2. SINCE THE WALL AXIAL LOAD SMALL AND SECTIONS UNDER TENSION-CONTROLLED (ACI 318-08, 10.3.4), ONLY
CHECK WALL FLEXURAL CAPACITIES ARE ADEQUATE.
3. SINCE THE SLAB AT FLEXURAL & AXIAL LOADS, THE COMBINED CAPACITY OF FLEXURAL & AXIAL MUST BE CHECKED.

SERVICE LOADS
Hb = 0.5 Pa (H + ts)2 = 0.95 kips / ft
Hs = ws Pa (H + ts) / gb = 0.13 kips / ft
HE = 0.5 PE (H + ts) 2
= 0.42 kips / ft

FACTORED LOADS
gHb = 1.6 Hb = 1.52 kips / ft
gHs = 1.6 Hs = 0.21 kips / ft
gHE = 1.6 HE = 0.68 kips / ft

Mu = (0.5 g Hs + 0.33 g Hb + 0.67 g HE) H = 6.38 ft-kips / ft, (entire lateral loads used conservatively)
Pu = 0.43 kips / ft, (concrete wall self weight)
