Abstract: The invention relates to a method for designing and forming a retaining wall in the ground having a required target wall stiffness made of a soil-based mortar, which is produced in the ground by mixing soil material and a cement suspension, and vertically aligned support beams, which are positioned in the soil-based mortar and arranged therein, wherein the arrangement of the support beams is laid-out to have an overall beam stiffness. According to the invention, it is provided that the support beams are arranged such that the laid-out overall beam stiffness is less than the required target wall stiffness, and that, when laying-out and arranging the support beams, an additional stiffness component is added that results from at least one adjacent wall section made of soil-based mortar.
