A foundation and earth works design office hired you to calculate the buoyancy force generated by the soil profile, indicated as shown in the figure below, in a retaining wall. qd2kN/m²Soft sandY1=(14.0+4.0.Y) kN/m³φ1=20ºC=0kPa Compact sandY2=(18.0+3.0.X) kN/m³φ2=40°C=0kPa h1=2.0mh2=3,Zm Given the information above, draw up the active buoyancy diagram (horizontal stresses) and calculate the value of the resulting buoyancy generated by the imposed vertical stresses and the point of application of their resultant. Considerations:- The efforts of the soil on the wall are of an active nature;⁃ The survey carried out to the depth indicated in the profile did not identify the water table level;⁃ X, Y and Z correspond to the third-to-last, penultimate and last digits of the student's RA, respectively. In this case, X=6 Y=1 Z=0. Where, h2=3.0 m; Y1- (14.0+4+0.1)= 14.4 kN/m³ and Y2=(18.0+3*0.6)= 19.8 kN/m³;- Neglect vertical friction between the wall and the ground.

The following figure shows a section of an anchored retaining wall embedded into a saturated stiff clay layer. The sand has a unit weight of = 18 kN/m³, c' = 0 kPa and o' = 34º. The clay has a unit weight of = 20 kN/m³, c₁ = 80 kPa and = 0°. A uniform pressure of 40 kPa is applied on the soil surface. The short term stability of the wall is considered in an undrained analysis. Use the Rankin's theory of lateral earth pressure to determine the active and passive horizontal stresses. You should apply the requirements of AS 4678 and the partial factors of safety method in estimation of soil pressures. Assume the soil is in-situ and use a structural classification factor of ₁ = 1. 3m 1m Water table 1.5m 40 kPa Not to Scale Sand Clay Ta
