WHERE,
W = vertical load of the slipping mass
= angle subtended by the slip circle
C= cohesion in terms of total stress
R = radius of the slip circle
hc= depth of tension crack
H = (4C/) - h
If there is no tension crack, i.e. h = 0,
then,
H = (4C/)
The theoretical value of h is(2C/)
and then H =(2C/)
= unit weight of soil
C= undrained strength of soil
