The lack of uniformity of concepts related to earth retaining wall selection is a present challenge in the practice of geotechnics. The objective of the article is to identify the types of retaining walls used in urban regions in Brazil and to propose guidelines for these walls’ selection. From the literature review, there was a proposal of guidelines for the soil retaining choices with subsequent application in a pilot study. The method proposed by the research managed to define the workflows and parameters for the selection of the appropriate structure that guarantees safety, performance, and economy.
