Determine the magnitude and position of active thrust and passive thrust on the embedded wall in the following conditions (consider Passive and active horizontal stresses)
solving for Pa for every shape in the active side as shown and
Za, using letters no numbers, and the Pp and Zp at the passive side
also for every shape.
Both soil layers have cohesion, and angle of friction, soil 2 is
saturated as shown from the water table present, and surcharge is
applied as shown in the picture
I hope this image is now clear please Determine the magnitude and position of active thrust...
Calculate the magnitude and position (above the wall base) of the resultant active thrust denoted Pa. Wall has a smooth vertical back and supports a 12m depth of soil Surface horizontal: uniform surcharge q= 24 kPa, single layer. Water table at the top surface c' =0. Φ'=32 degrees γsat =20 kN/m3
