Soil mechanics
In a certain sea shore, the height of a retaining
wall with smooth vertical back is 4.4 m. The
foundation is over an expansive collapsible soil
and has a horizontal surface at the level of the
top of the wall and carries a UDL of 197 kPa.
The unit weight and angle of internal friction are
19 kN/m³ and 30°, respectively. What is the
nearest magnitude of the total active pressure
per metre length of this sea shore wall?
