A line of sheet piling is driven 4 m into a firm clay and retains, on one side, a 3 m depth of fill on top of the clay. Water table level is at the surface of the clay. The unit weight of the fill is 18 kN/m³ and the saturated unit weight of the clay is 20 kN/m³. Calculate the active and passive pressures at the lower end of the sheet piling (a) if cu = 50 kN/m², cw = 25 kN/m² and u = 8 = 0 and (b) if c = 10 kN/m², cw = 5 kN/m², o' = 26° and 8 = 13°, for the clay.

A masonry dam of trapezoidal cross section, with one face vertical, has a thickness of 2ft at the top and 10ft at the bottom. It is 22ft high and has a horizontal base. The inclined face is subjected to water pressure, the water standing to a depth of 15ft above the base. The weight of the masonry is 150lb per cu ft. If there is no hydrostatic uplift, where will the resultant pressure intersect the base? Is this a good design?
