A trapezoidal masonry dam, having 4 m top width, 8 m bottom width and 12 m height, is retaining water up to a height of 10 m. The density of the masonry is 20 kN/m³ and coefficient of friction between the dam and soll is 0.55. The allowable compressive strength stress is 343.350 kN/m². Check the stability of the dam.

Load and resistance factor design

Load and resistance factors design (LRFD), also known as Limit state design (LSD), refers to the design method used in building engineering. A boundary condition is a condition of a structure where it can no longer meet the relevant design requirements. The condition may refer to the load level or other actions on the structure, while the terms refer to the integrity of the structure, suitability for use, durability, or other design requirements. A structure designed for LRFD is limited to keeping track of all possible actions during its design time and is always ready for use, with the appropriate level of reliability in each boundary condition. LRFD-based construction codes clearly define the appropriate levels of reliability in their instructions.
