1(b). Find expressions for the hydrostatic water pressure and uplift pressure forces for the Overflow section Gravity Dam (built of concrete, c=24kN.m-3) as shown in the figure below (in terms of h2,H,w,) if the upstream face is inclined and downstream face inclined at an angle as indicated with a tailwater or D/S water depth H4 when the velocity of approach of U/S flow is V3. The drainage gallery locat. fram the U/S heel of the dam. Draw appropriate pressure diagrams.
