Wall(5)
Average thickness of Wall
Min % steel required for shrinkage & temperature
Ast reqd for whole section =
Above steel shall be distributed in both the faces
Dia of bars used
Spacing of bars 
Base Slab(6)
Average thickness of Wall
Min % steel required for shrinkage & temperature
Ast reqd for whole section =
Above steel shall be distributed in both the faces
Dia of bars used
Spacing of bars 
d) Design of Shear Key
Considering a factor of safety against sliding 1.5.
Horizontal force reqd. to resist sliding
Restoring force available
Force to be resisted by the key
Assumption
i) Shear key is exactly placed below the stem/wall
ii) 2/3rd of SBC on the soil to resist the shear
Allowable passive pressure
Hence depth of the key
Moment @ the bott. Face of slab
Thickness of the shear key assumed
Diametre of the bar used
Clear cover to the maib bar
Effective depth
Design moment = 1.6.M
