Abutment Wall Section Detail Drawing With Footing And Wing Wall

The Abutment Wall Section Detail Drawing illustrates a structural section of a bridge abutment used to support the bridge deck and retain the soil of the approach embankment. This CAD drawing typically shows the abutment stem wall, bridge seat, back wall, foundation footing, and wing wall arrangement that stabilizes the bridge ends. The section detail may also include foundation depth, base footing width, structural wall thickness, and ground level alignment required for proper load transfer. In bridge engineering, an abutment is the end support of a bridge that transfers loads from the superstructure to the ground while also acting as a retaining wall for the roadway embankment.
