In the area of high seismic intensity, there were few methods for calculating active earth pressure (Ea). Especially for the cantilever retaining wall with long relief shelf (CRW-LRS), the theoretical method lags behind the practical engineering. The seismic active earth pressure (ES) of the CRW-LRS subject to translational mode was researched. By finite element method (FEM), the failure mode of the active limit state under seismic load was evaluated. The results show that the backfill behind the wall generates the first sliding surface at the wall heel bottom, the second at the wall heel top, and the third at the relief shelf top. The calculation formula of ES under long relief shelf failure mode was proposed using the limit analysis method of a horizontal differential layer. The calculation results were compared with the FEM results to prove the rationality and reliability of the theoretical solution. The effects of relief shelf relative length (l) and position (m), wall heel length (n), internal frictional angle of the backfill (φ), seismic horizontal acceleration (ah), and seismic vertical acceleration (aV) on ES were studied.
