1.) Water backs up behind a concrete dam as shown in the figure. Leakage under the foundation gives a pressure distribution under the dam as indicated. If the water depth, h, is too great, the dam will topple over about its toe (point A). Base on a per unit length analysis of the dam with specific weight of the concrete as 150 lb/ft3, determine the maximum water depth for the following widths of the dam. L = 30 ft. Water 80 ft Water h,= 10 ft
