Y=15 kN/m 4'=28° c'-0 4m G.W.T. Yu 20 kN/m 4'-33° 4m The above figure shows a concrete gravity retaining wall supporting two layers of soil. Answer the following questions (a, b, c, d, e, f, g & h). Note: 1. Use Rankine's theory of active pressure. 2. Complete solution with diagrams is required for PS2. 3. In all the steps in your solution, round the answers to three decimal places. This is important so your answer will match the answer key.
