Question 3: The following figure shows the soil profile at a site for a proposed building. The soil is a homogeneous, poorly graded sand. At the soil element A (as shown in the figure), if the increase in lateral effective stress is 20% of the increase in vertical effective stress, the soil element will failure. The coefficient of lateral earth pressure at rest. Ko is 0.5. Assume all stresses are principal stresses. The upper 4 m soil shares the same...

Problem 5 You are to examine the retaining wall shown on Figure 2. Assume that the wall height (H) is equal to 12 feet, and the base width (B) is 7 feet. The wall will be approximately 200 feet long (into the page). The backfill material behind the wall is a poorly-graded sand with silt (ŚP-SM) that has an average total unit weight of 1 19 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) and an average water content of 12%. As indicated,...
