A concrete dam of trapezoidal cross section, with one face vertical has a thickness of 0.60 m at the top and 4.2 m at the bottom. It is 7 meters high and has a horizontal base. The vertical face is subjected to a water pressure, the water standing 6 m above the base. The weight of concrete is 24 kN/m³ per meter length of the dam, evaluate: 24. Hydrostatic force acting on the wall. 25.The resisting moment of the dam to overturning in kN-m. 26. Factor of safety for sliding.
