Basic User's Guide: Computer Program for Design and Analysis of Inverted-T Retaining Walls and Floodwalls (TWDA).

Abstract

Computer program TWDA (T-wall design/analysis) is a user-oriented conversationally interactive, modular time-sharing program system for computer-aided structural design of inverted-T retaining walls and floodwalls founded on earth or rock. The philosophy ot TWDA is to (a) ensure minimum-cost adequate design based on current codes and criteria, independent of the user's experience, and to (b) promote the use of personal judgement and imagination through man-machine interaction.
