Profile of a weir on permeable foundation is shown in figure I and an elementary profile of 'upstream pile only case' according to Khosla's theory is shown in figure II. The uplift pressure heads at key points Q, R and S are 3.14 m, 2.75 m and 0 m, respectively (refer figure II). 1m 3m 10m 4m TR 5m 1 Gate Weir 5m - Figurel 40 m Floor 25m P S 5m Figure II What is the uplift pressure head at point P downstream of the weir (junction of floor and pile as shown in the figure 1)?
