Retaining Walls Designer

Welcome! 👋

During my early days in structural engineering, I developed a Cantilever Concrete Retaining Wall Designer to assist with the design and analysis of retaining walls using Python. Today, I’m excited to present its modern version as a web application, powered by Streamlit.

Software developed to streamline the design and detailing process of retaining walls. The program allows:

Features 🚀

• Define the parameters
• Define the dimensions
• Design the reinforcement (moment)
• Visualization
