Question

Calculate;

1) calculate the radius of failure curve from A origin

2) Define La

3) Investigae how much pressure induced from water (in the ground surface crack)

4) define the factor of safety of respected slope

 

Figure Q3c shows a cutting in saturated clay is inclined at a slope has a
vertical height of 10m. The saturated unit weight, ysat of the soil is 20 kN/m3
and its undrained cohesion, cu is 25 kN/m2. The weight of slip mass is 3150
kN/m and e is 67.40. The conditions of tension crack at the ground surface is
full of water.
