8. The flow net for the dam below is shown under the following conditions: Ah = 15 m, the soil
beneath the dam has a hydraulic conductivity of k= 3x10-3 cm/s, and the length of the dam into
the page is 80 m.
a. Compute the total flow rate under the dam.
b. If the length of the dam is 32m, draw a diagram of the uplift pressure acting on the
dam and compute the total uplift force. Use only the 3 points for uplift calculations.
