The following figure shows a section of a long reinforced concrete cantilever wall with unit weight of 23.5 kN/m”. The distributed surcharge on the back of the wall is a live load. The following properties are known for the backfill: unit weight saturated unit weight shear strength parameters 7 = 17 kN/m3 7sat = 20 kN/m3 d =0 Ó' = 25° d = 20° friction angle between wall and soil a. Determine the factor of safety against overturning (about the...
RCD3601/101/0/2019 QUESTION 8 Figura o shows the section through a neonased reinforced concrete cantilever retaining wall that will be situated on a property boundary. Grade 30/19 concrete and high tensile steel reinforcement is to be The backfill behind the wall is sloping at an angle of 15º measured from the horizontal and is subjected to an imposed load of 2.5 kN/m². A geotechnical report gave the following soil parameters: • Unit weight of soil (V) = 17 kN/m • Angle...
