Eriksson Wall 1.4.7

Eriksson Wall

Eriksson Wall is a comprehensive software tool for the analysis and design of various types of retaining walls, including cantilever, gravity, sheet pile, and basement walls. The software enables engineers to evaluate wall stability against sliding, overturning, and bearing capacity failure while considering different soil conditions, surcharge loads, and groundwater effects. By applying established geotechnical principles and earth pressure theories (Rankine, Coulomb), it provides reliable calculations for wall dimensions, reinforcement requirements (for concrete walls), and anchor designs, ensuring safe and economical earth retention solutions for construction projects.
