Re: Retaining wall footing resultant CBC

For non-school buildings and non-OSHPD buildings you don't need to meet 1806A.1. It's not a matter of essential facilities...but I know what you meant.

California Building Code section 1806A.1 requires the resultant must be in the middle half using 1605A.3 load combinations. I don't see this requirement in chapter 1806. For non essential facilities are there any requirements for the retaining wall resultant, or do we just need a 1.5 safety factor?
