Consider base of brick
wall. BS8002 Cl. 4.2.4.4.2
recommends that
unreinforced masonry
walls are waterproofed, so
for the purposes of this
example, the rear face of
the wall is assumed to be
waterproofed with
bitumen-coated polythene
sheet. The friction between
fill and the back of the wall is taken as zero in this case.

Gabion wall
CP2 does not give specific recommendations for
gabion walls. However it does give
recommendations for the design of crib walls, which
are similar to gabion walls. The crib wall rules
recommend that the vertical force resultant is kept
inside the middle quarter of the wall, i.e. e < 0.125b
(Cl. 5.322).
An alternative CP2 design has also been prepared in
accordance with recommendations of one of the
main gabion manufacturers, Maccaferri, who
recommend that the variation in pressure across the
wall base is limited to 50kN/m.
BS8002 recommends that the resultant vertical force
is kept inside the middle third, i.e. 0. (Cl. 4.2.6.4.2).
