8-retaining wall 36 inch.pdf

This is a technical specification document for a standard 36-inch reinforced concrete retaining wall, prepared by or for the City of Bountiful, Utah, in connection with a broader construction contract for the replacement and new construction of sidewalk, curb and gutter, and storm drain facilities at random locations throughout Bountiful City. The specification details the wall's structural design, including dimensions of 36 inches in height with an 8-inch base thickness that varies, a standard 4-foot width, and a 3-inch chamfered top edge on both sides. The wall requires a 3-inch thick untreated base course with gravel fill, #4 reinforcement bars spaced at 18 inches on center with 3 inches of concrete cover, and a rubbed finish on all exposed concrete surfaces.

Material requirements specify that each linear foot of wall must contain 0.125 cubic yards of concrete and 6.6 pounds of reinforced steel. This standard design serves as a template for multiple retaining wall installations throughout the City of Bountiful's sidewalk, curb, gutter, and storm drain replacement and new construction project. No specific contract award dates, response deadlines, pricing information, set-aside designations, or incumbent vendor details are provided in this technical specification document. The retaining wall specification functions as a construction standard to ensure consistent quality and material performance across the broader citywide infrastructure improvement initiative.
