Proposed an engineering method for calculating the fine quay walls of the seismic action. At the initial stage is the stress-strain state of the walls of the static load taking into account the redistribution of lateral earth pressure. In the presence of an earthquake is determined by seismic lateral earth pressure on the wall from the effects of inertia forces, added mass of water pressure and dynamic load from various forms of oscillations of the wall. Seismic load fluctuations wall defined by dynamic spectral method as a result of decomposition of seismic vibrations in a series of major modes of vibration. The results of the proposed calculation realized in the program «SCAD», and have been compared with «Plaxis - 2D» results.
