Keith,
I’ve attached the latest detail for the proposed retaining wall “fix” received 10/11/10. Below is our structural
department’s response:
“We have reviewed the revised "fix" submitted by the Contractor. We had raised some questions about the previous
repair. There is still one issue unresolved. The new vertical wall does not extend to the top and we are OK with that;
we do have a problem with the attachment of the new wall to the existing wall (#3 @ 15" c/c). Keep in mind that the
traffic rail will be attached to the top of the wall in place and we had problems with that wall as constructed. It’s
recommended to attach securely the existing wall to the new wall using heavier anchors more closely spaced to
withstand vehicular impact. #5 @12” centers would be acceptable. This detail is required for the entire length of
previously constructed wall.
Other than that, we are ok with the proposed revisions.
Tony Diaz, P.E.”
Please review and provide any comments you might have. Forward this on to Steve with and have him contact
Tony Diaz directly at 817-735-7265 with any questions or comments he might have.
Thanks.
