General description : The proposed RCC structure is a circular protection wall for well. Diameter of
well is 14.10 m. The height of wall below ground is 3.3 m which is supported on circular ring
beam & 1.5m above ground level.

Case considered for design - well full upto ground level (Most critical)

Design of wall -3.3m to -2.2m Vertical reinforcement (For moment)

 H2/Dt 3.09
If, 3 < H2/Dt < 12, height y = greater of H/3 or 1m.
Hence height to be designed as If H2/Dt > 12, height y = greater of H/4 or 1m.
