摘要：	Retaining walls of many types such as gravity wall, cantilever wall, counter fort wall and buttress wall etc. are structures that are generally used to retain earth in a position and to resist the lateral pressure of the soil against the wall. Though retaining walls are simple structures and commonly built in every nook and corner of the country for various earth retaining purposes, yet many problems are encountered in the field as a result of either improper or conservative design. These problems arise mainly due to the fact that engineers in the field are bogged down with numerous responsibilities and often do not find time to carry out proper design. In the present paper, the influence and importance of various parameters on lateral earth pressure has been studied using the Coulomb's Theory. The study reveals that angle of repose of backfill φ, angle of friction between wall and backfill δ and vertical angle of earth face of wall α does influence on estimating the active earth pressures, which ultimately govern the design of retaining walls, to an extent that if there actual values are not taken in to consideration, it will result in improper or conservative design. The study will give an insight to the field engineers working in Highways sector and facilitate them in providing techno-economic sections of the wall.
