Question
The dam for a lake is designed to withstand the additional force caused by silt that has settled on the lake bottom. Assuming that silt is equivalent to a liquid of density ρs = 1.76 X 10 kg/m' and considering a l-m-wide section of dam. determine the percentage increase in the force acting on the dam face for a silt accumulation of depth 2 m.

Four supporting struts (member BC) are evenly spaced every 4 feet along the 12-foot width of the barrier. The weight of barrier ABD is 200 lbs. Assume the weight of the struts are negligible. The specific weight of water is 62.4 lb/ft³. Determine the magnitude of the force in each strut and state whether the strut is in tension or compression. A 60° 3 ft 5 ft 3 ft 60°arrow_forward
