The Tumbes River, located in northern Peru, faces constant challenges related to flooding and overflows, affecting infrastructure and adjacent communities. To mitigate these risks, cantilever retaining walls represent a viable solution. This article analyzes and compares AASHTO and Eurocode regulations for the design of such walls. Structural, safety and economic aspects are addressed, considering design parameters, materials and costs. The results demonstrate significant differences in the structural behavior and efficiency of the designs, providing recommendations to optimize the use of these regulations in the riverside defenses of the Tumbes River.
