Abstract: Based on the view point of the uniform reinforcement along entire circular section combined with partial uniform reinforcement. There is a new method to calculate reinforcement for R.C. Retaining Piles with circular section, in which the function table and the correction formula are included. The results shows that the application of new method the steel bar is saved about 14~31% with the advantage of uniform reinforcement alone entire circle.
