Problem 6: A 4.5 m high retaining wall is supporting a horizontal backfill having a unit weight of 15.7 kN/m³ and a saturated unit weight of 19.3 kN/m³. Ground water table is located 3 m below the ground surface. Drained friction angle for the backfill is 30°. Cohesion of soil = 20 kN/m² a) Compute for the total force per unit length of wall for passive condition. b) Compute for the location of the resultant force. q = 10 kN/m² Y = 15.7 kN/m3 3m V GWT 1.5m Y = 19.3 kN/m3
