A dam 20 m long retains 7 m of water, 28 shown in Fig. 3-6 Find the total resultant force acting on the dam and
the location ofthe center of pressure.
HF = ph~(.79){(0+ 7)/21(20)(7/sn 607] = 5339 UN. The center of pressure is located at two-thirds the
total water depth of 7 m, or 4.667 m below the water surface (Le., hap = 4.667 min Fig. 3-6).
