Why counter forts are provided in retaining walls?
Counterforts are built into retaining walls (and masonry walls in general) to act as a lateral brace and support the lateral loads that building vertical walls generates. This allows the overall width of the retaining wall to remain slim along the entire length (which reduces the cost) but also braces the wall as needed.Counterforts can also be used to support ancillary elements, such as sidewalks and grade-level improvements, built next to below-grade walls. The counterfort acts to brace the wall and to support the ancillary elements, should the soil backfill placed next to the below-grade wall experience settlement, which is usually inevitable.
How much weight can concrete paver blocks hold?
Actually, the question is: How much weight can the soil below the pavers hold? The pavers are simply a top dressing. The stone, sand, sur-pack, or whatever is below the pavers is the thing that is doing the work. If the soil is soft, the pavers will sink under load. If it is firm, the pavers can hold quite a lot.

Why do you need to find the natural ground level when building?
Here is what the IRC (International Residential Code) says about footings and proper placement. R403.1.4 Minimum depth. All exterior footings shall be placed at least 12 inches (305 mm) below the undisturbed ground surface. The basic reasoning for getting down to natural ground level is to get to get below the level of undisturbed ground surface. This includes the ground surface likely to include roots and other bio materials. Undisturbed ground is more likely to properly support the weights applied from a structure over the long term. Take for instance tree roots

Most are only designed for a specific range and numbers above or below that range cannot be measured.

Why are sleepers used below the rails?
When sleepers are placed below the rails, the area of cross-section is increased. We know pressure= Force/Area. When the trains run on the rails, the pressure is small because of large area of cross-section of the sleeper. Hence, ground will not yield under the weight of the train.
