| Summary: | The lateral wall displacements for free cantilever bored pile retaining wall can be
excessive. Lateral supports which help to minimise wall displacements are not always
possible or economical. By introducing a relieving slab at the rear of the cantilever bored
pile retaining wall, the magnitude of deflection and bending moment in the bored pile
wall are reduced, thereby optimising the design of the retaining system and reducing the
construction period. Site topography which require the bored pile retaining wall to be
extended upwards and subsequently backfilled can be suitable for the application of the
relieving slab behind the wall. |
