Transcribed Image Text:Determine the seismic design force (in pounds) for a parapet braced at the top. The concrete (150 pcf) parapet measures 4 ft tall and 6 in thick. Perform the analysis on a 1 ft
strip of parapet. In other words, the parapet for analysis measures 12 in long x 4 ft tall x 6 in thick. The parapet is on the roof, so z = h. Use SDS = 0.8 and Ip = 1.0.

The reinforced concrete cantilever retaining wall in Figure 1 is made with 3000 psi normalweight concrete and reinforced with Grade 60 galvanized steel. The main reinforcement resists flexural stresses in the stem and is specified as #7 bars every 18 in along the length of the wall. The distribution steel distributes stresses along the length of the wall and is specified as #4 bars at 12 in spacing. The concrete cover is 1.5 in everywhere. Calculate the development length for the main reinforcement using the basic equation (ACI 318-19: 25.4.2.4). Assume no transverse reinforcement (Ker 0).
