Assume, γ = 15.5 kN/m3, γsat = 18 kN/m3, φ΄ = 18o, and γw = 10 kN/m3.(a) Draw the pressure diagram of the cantilever sheet-pile wall (may not necessarily be on scale).(b) Determine the theoretical depth of embedment.(c) What should be the minimum section modulus of the sheet piles? Use σall = 180 MN/m2.
1. (25 points) The soil profile at a site consists of a layer of fine sand 5 m thick above a layer of clay 4 m thick. Below the clay is a layer of impermeable rock. The groundwater table was observed at 2 m below ground level. The unit weight of the sand above and below the water table is 20 KN/m'. The water content of the clay is 25% and its dry unit weight is 15 KN/m'. The compression...
