What we’re about
I am a Chartered Professional Engineer based on Auckland's North Shore specializing in the structural design of buildings.
I'm planning to continue my series of online seminars to Structural Engineers. Previous seminars included:
- “An Overview of the Structural Design Process”
- “Qualitative Structural Engineering”
- “Learning From Failure: Designing Against Disproportionate Collapse”
- “Inspection & Appraisal of New & Existing Structures”
- “Preparation of Calculations and Structural Design Reports”
- “Wind Analysis to NZS1170 Part 2”
- “Seismic Assessment of Existing Buildings to NZSEE Guidelines”
They were originally aimed at recent graduates, but senior engineers would be welcome to participate and contribute.

This time we look at the design of Concrete Cantilever Retaining Walls.
The procedure follows Appendix C of "Verification Method B1/VM4: Foundations" and "Module 6 of MBIE Earthquake Geotechnical Practice – Earthquake resistant retaining wall design".
This will be another seminar asking WTF does this spreadsheet do with the answer given using Mathcad.
I'll record my presentation for upload to my YouTube channel, which will last around 25-30mins. (Please switch off your camera and microphone).The presentation will be followed by a discussion and a general Q&A. (This part will not be recoded so cameras and microphones can be switched back on.)
