PROBLEM 2: A vertical retaining wall 6m high is supporting a horizontal backfill having a weight of 16.5 kN/m3 and a saturated unit weight of 19 Backfill is 30°. Ground water table is located 3m below ground surface. gnd sface kN/m3. Angle of friction of the g= 16.5 kN/m f = 30° 3m water table 1. Determine the at rest lateral earth force per meter length of the wall. 9at = 19 kN/m f = 30 2. Determine the location of the resultant force. 3m 3. Determine the at rest lateral earth force per meter length of the wall if it carries a surcharge of 50kPa.
