Webinar participants will be able to identify industry and USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) standard codes and references, design loads and critical load combinations, and basic components of a typical NRCS Animal Waste Management (AWM) retaining wall.
This webinar follows the basics of the structural design process for a typical concrete retaining wall, beginning with basic background material on policy, basic loading considerations, stability analysis, and finishing with the structural analysis, reinforcing, and final concrete member design. The concrete design will focus on the basics of applicable codes and NRCS guidance such as TR-74 and ACI 318/350 with an emphasis on shear, flexure, and reinforcing as required for a typical NRCS animal waste management structure.
This webinar is presented by USDA NRCS Science and Technology.
