Retaining Walls - Anyone ever do this in Robot

Does any one out there ever run their retaining walls in Robot?  Just curious.  I was playing around with it this afternoon and it looks really easy to do...  That said, I'm having issues checking for things like soil pressures, overturning factors of safety...etc.  I can make a pretty model in a few minutes, but when it comes to getting work done, what are your expierences using Robot for your concrete retaining walls?

Figured out how to show soil bearing....I like this.  Any one use the reinforcement tools to design their walls?

I recommend to add your soil layer (before adding please display all columns):

or you can edit xml database using any xml editor (on your own risk):
