2. The concrete retaining shown wall is 20ft high and 4ft wide. The water table is 15ft below the ground behind the wall.
The soil density is 100lbft3. The soil cohesion K=0.5. What is the lateral force on the wall, per 100ft of wall length, due to the soil and water? (1078000 lb ?)
3. For the previous question how much lateral resistance to sliding does 100ft of the wall provide if the coefficient of friction between the wall and soil is 0.92? Reinforced concrete weighs 150lbft3.
