Question: Q . 3 Plot the distribution of active pressure on the wall surface as shown. The surcharge on the wall is 7 k N m

Q.3 Plot the distribution of active pressure on the wall surface as shown. The surcharge on the wall is 7kNm2. Calculate the total thrust on the wall (active and hydrostatic) and determine its point of application. Above the water table the unit weight of the retained soil is 18kNm3 and below the water table the saturated unit weight is 20kN/ Let c'=0kNm2,'=35.
