Question
For the dam indicated in the figure below, the flow network was drawn according to Casagrande criteria:
The height of the water level, in relation to the elevation 0.0 m, is h and the soil permeability coefficient is k = (Z + 1.1).〖10〗^(-2) cm/s
Therefore, you are asked to calculate:
a) The neutral pressure at points A, B and C.
Consider:
- Specific weight of water Yágua = 10kN/m^3
- X, Y and Z correspond to the third-to-last, penultimate and last digits of the student's RA, respectively. Thus, for the example case of a student with example RA 1234567: X=5, Y=6 and Z=7. In this case, H=(30+5)m = 35.0m,
h_AB= (2.0+6)m = 8.0m and k= (7+1.1).〖10〗^(-2) CM/S = 8.1.〖10〗^(-2) CM/ S.
MY RA =
X=6
Y=1
Z=0
