Question: A retaining wall with base width ( B = 2 . 0 ) m , bearing layer has, cohesion = 7 0 K N m

A retaining wall with base width (B=2.0)m, bearing layer has, cohesion =70
KNm2, angle of internal friction =10 degree, gall=100KNm2, unit weight =20
{:KNm3).Df=1.0m
Given:
Total vertical forces =500KNm, total sliding force =130KNm
Total resisting moment =850KN*mm
Total overturning moment =500KN*mm
Check stability against bearing capacity.
Check stability against sliding, if not safe find the required depth of the key.
