Landslides are common in Ethiopia’s nearly mountainous, hilly, and highlands; numerous landslides have been reported in the last 30 years, triggered by heavy rainfall, such as earth slides, earth flows, and rockfalls, resulting in the loss of many human lives, damage to many houses, and loss of agricultural lands. Landslides triggered by unusually heavy rain recently occurred in Dessie, in Ethiopia’s south Wollo region, causing a massive mass of soil to slide downward and closing the existing Kombolcha-Dessie Road. The primary goal of this paper is to design and analyze a reinforced concrete cantilever retaining wall capable of supporting a large mass of soil. The detailed investigation in this research paper is conducted using experimental methods, whereas the design and analysis are conducted using conventional methods.
