1、Retaining Wall A retaining wall is a structure designed and constructed to resist the lateral pressure of soil when there is a desired change in ground elevation that exceeds the angle of repose of the soil. The active pressure increases on the retaining wall proportionally from zero at the upper gr
2、ade level to a maximum value at the lowest depth of the wall. The total pressure or thrust may be assumed to be acting through the centroid of the triangular distribution pattern, one-third above the base of the wall. Stability of Retaining walls (a) sliding of the wall outwards from the retaining s
3、oil, (b) overturning of the retaining wall about its toe, (c) foundation bearing failure (d) larger scale slope or other failure in the surrounding soil. Retaining wall design has long been carried out with the aid of either the Rankine or Coulomb theories of earth pressure.Water loadWave loads Flui

7、tion Reynolds number Fundamental natural period of vibration for structure重力荷重力荷载载（ （Weight load） ）Within the framework of Civil Engineering, structural engineering is the discipline that creates the structural forms that serve to provide shelter, electrical power, and transportation for the populat
8、ion. It is often said that structural design is a combination of art and science. The experience and intuitive feeling of an engineer relative to the structure being built reflect the artistic aspects of structural design. The scientific aspects of structural design rely on knowledge of mechanics an
9、d material behavior.However, the two aspects are not separated since a good structural design requires a highly creative work based on engineering judgements and scientific principles.Before and assessment of the preliminary design can be accomplished, it is necessary to make a reasonable estimate o
10、f the loads that will be applied to the structure during its service life. These loads will produce strength and stiffness demands on the structure that must be satisfied by the strength and stiffness supplied by the selected members.The basic concept of a successful design is that the Demands of th
11、e applied loads must be less than the Supply of the strength and stiffness provided by the structural members.土土压压力：力：Soil Pressure土土侧压侧压力，地下水力，地下水压压力：力：Load due to Lateral earth pressure, Groundwater pressure.自重：自重：self-weightDetermination Method of Equivalent uniform loads Uniform Live Loads on Fl

14、lity of StructureFunctionality:ServiceabilityThe structure has to be designed to function properly during its anticipated service life. This usually means that excessive deformations and undesired vibrations should be not occur.SafetyThe structure must be designed with sufficient strength and stiffn

Sustainability of Civil Engineering Structures DurabilityThese loads are termed the “dead load” since they are fixed with regard to both position and magnitude. Occupancy
16、 loads are considered to be “live loads” since both their magnitude and location are uncertain.Earthquake engineering is concerned with the design and construction of all kinds of civil and building engineering systems to withstand earthquake shaking.
