You are reviewing the stability of the gravity wall when the backfill has properties with: Φ' = 35° and γt = 16.5 kN/m3. The soils in front of the wall is ignored in the stability analysis, and the drainage blanket has no influence. Assume the coefficient of the base friction is, μ = 0.3, and the unit weight of concrete is γc = 23.5 kN/m3. a) draw the lateral earth pressure diagram and determine the total active lateral force. b) determine the factor of safety against overturning. c) determine the factor of safety against sliding.
