Problem 2.

a. H = 6.1 m
Angle of wall friction = +20°
Angle of internal friction = 36°
Soil unit weight = 17.9 kN/m³

Using the Logspiral.exe, the resultant earth pressure, P = 2493.31481kN/m.

b. H = 6.1 m
Angle of wall friction = +20°
Angle of internal friction = 36°
Soil unit weight = 17.9 kN/m³
c. H = 6.1 m
Angle of wall friction = +20°
Angle of internal friction = 36°
Soil unit weight = 17.9 kN/m³
Cohesion = 24 kPa
Adhesion between soil and contact face = 24 kPa

Using the Logspiral.exe, the resultant earth pressure, P = 2493.31481kN/m, and its location is z =
2.30217m above base.
