There is a minimum order of five copies for this title

This guide has been superseded by CIRIA C760 Guidance on embedded retaining wall design

This guide replaces CIRIA R104 published in 1984 and provides good practice guidance on the selection and design of vertical embedded retaining walls. It covers temporary and permanent cantilever, anchored, single and multi-propped retaining walls that are supported by embedment in stiff clay and other competent soils. It is one of the most important ground engineering publications since the mid 1980s.

The publication addresses the technical and construction issues relating to the selection of appropriate wall type and construction sequence to achieve overall economy. It clarifies areas of design ambiguity and presents a clear, unambiguous method for the design of such walls.
