2. Design the anchored sheet pile wall supporting a loose sand fill as shown in the
following Figure. GWT is at the same height on both sides, and assume yw=10kN/m³.
Based on the log spiral solutions, the Ka for the loose sand is 0.3 while the Ka and Kp
for the dense sand are 0.2 and 13.125, respectively. Using the free earth support
method, do the following:
a) For a factor of safety of 2 on the passive resistance, determine the required depth of
penetration depth, D. (initial trial with D'=1.5m)
b) Determine the bending moment and the anchor load.
