- 4.- A retaining wall with a vertical back is 8 m high. The volumetric weight of the 3 m fill surfaces is y = 1.75 ton/m3 and the angle of resistance is $ = 30°; for the 5m remaining fill the values are y = 1.85 ton/m3 and angle of internal friction = 35°. Also there is an overload on the horizontal surface of the landfill equivalent to 1.2 ton/m2, Evenly distributed. Find the magnitude and point of application of the thrust per meter of Wall. A) If the fill is well drained B) If the fill becomes saturated after a storm (assume for this case that the weights saturated values of the two strata are 1.9 and 2.0 ton/m3 respectively) q= 1.2 ton/m2 ↓↓↓↓ Y = 1.75 ton/m3 $ = 30° Y $ = 35° 1.85 ton/m3 H1 = 3.0 m H2 = 5.0 marrow_forward3.3 Three grit chambers are currently used to treat grits in a WWTP.
