Shear force and bending moment

Total shear force; F = P1 + P2 + W  (a1 – a) = 33700 lbs
Total bending moment at grade; Mg = P1  H1 + P2  H2 + W  (a1 – a)  (a + a1) / 2 + M1 = 1327780

Distance of resultant lateral force; h = abs(Mg / F) = 39.4 ft
Embedment depth (1807.3.2.2)
Embedment depth provided; D = 12.6 ft
Allowable lateral passive pressure; S3 = min(Pmax, Lsbc  min(D, 12 ft))  LDF1  LDF2 = 2394 psf
