TI  - Metaheuristics-based Pre-Design Guide for Cantilever
Retaining Walls
AB  - A pre-design guide for cantilever retaining walls and a detail parametric study of such walls
is presented here. Mathematical models based on statistical methods were improved for
calculating safety factors of sliding, overturning, and slope stability of those walls. The
harmony search algorithm (HSA)-a metaheuristic optimization method-was employed to
realize reasonable results of the pre-design guide from all distinct cases. Through the design
algorithm, the optimal design was determined for varied soil types differently from
suggestions of design codes. Thus, an optimal pre-design guide for safe and economic wall
design was realized in a shorter time compared to the conventional method.
