Pier Wall Design Specifications

The document provides design parameters and calculations for the design of a pier wall. Key parameters include a concrete compressive strength of 3000 psi, rebar yield strength of 60000 psi, and maximum flood elevation of 10 meters. Calculations are shown for checking wall thickness, shear capacity, flexural reinforcement, and developing a final reinforcement layout. The layout includes #16mm rebar spaced at 150mm along the weak section and 200mm elsewhere.
