Turning a STEEP Hill into a Flat yard #1

What happens here

The retaining wall project will eventually grow from 9 feet to 11 feet tall and will have a patio built on top of it, creating a surcharge. The entire wall was preemptively designed to accommodate these additional loads and height increases, allowing for future expansion or modifications without compromising structural integrity. This forward-thinking design ensures the wall can take on extra weight and height as needed.

Goal: Design the retaining wall to accommodate future height increase, patio, and surcharge.
