3. A cantilever retaining wall is installed in soil having a cohesion of 36 kPa. The slip surface of a trail soil wedge is 29 m long, and the weight of the soil above the slip surface is 23 kN/m. The angle of failure plane is 17° from the horizontal, and the angle of internal friction is 31°. What is the available shear resistance per foot of soil? Answer in units of kN/m. 4. Limited laboratory studies indicate that for a certain silt soil, the effective pore size for height of capillary rise is 1/5 of D10 is the 10 percent particle size from the grain-size distribution curve. If the D10 size for such a soil is 0.02 mm, estimated the height of capillary rise. 5. The results of a constant-head permeability test for a fine sand sample having a diameter of 150 mm and a length of 300 mm are as follows:
