Thanks Armando... I managed to find some more information yesterday... from a UK Civil’s Design Group



Specific data for "Water Retaining Structures"

Walls 100mm thickness per metre retained height rebar density 120kg/m3

Bases wall thickness plus 50mm rebar density 130kg/m3

For piled bases the density increases to 150kg/m3

General note - for non water retaining structures reduce the densities by 25%.
