Soil water load calculation for Etabs
0
Water unit length ,γw = 10 KN/m3 Case 1
Soil unit weight, γs = 18 KN/m3 Full water ,No soil pressure before backfilling
Surcharge load ,qs = 5 KN/m2 H =0 m leakage, testing time
Height of water = 0m
Height of wall side soil = 1.5 m
Angle of friction ,θ = 30 degree
sin θ = 0.5
Rankin's coefficient for active soil pressure, Ka = 0.3333333 0 KN/m2
Rankin's coefficient for soil pressure for surcharge load, Ks = 0.5 Surcharge Pressure
PS2 Value Soil Pressure
water pressure at bottom, Pw = γs*Ks*hs = 0 KN/m2 2.5 KN/m2 Case 2
Soil pressure at bottom ,PS1 = 9 KN/m3 Soil Pressure
Surcharge pressure at bottom, PS2 = 2.5 KN/m2 Surcharge
Pressue,
Total pressure for case 2 = 11.5 KN/m2 No water

For water pressure Case 1

At Z= 0 m At Z= 0m
Pressure = 0 KN/m2 Pressure = 0 KN/m2
D= 0 KN/m2 C= #DIV/0!

For soil+surcharge pressure case 2

At Z= 0 m At Z= 1.5 m
Pressure = 11.5 KN/m2 Pressure = 2.5 KN/m2
D= 11.5 KN/m2 C= -6 KN/m2
