X=35  Y=30 Z=19.5

Q5. (P.) A 30 m height slope is to be built as shown below. The homogeneous with c' = X kN/m² and o' = Y°.
The saturated unit weight of soil is Z kNhm³. Using the ordinary method of slices, compute the factor of safety
along the potential failure surface. In your calculations, you should also consider the seven meter depth tension
crack [GWT at ground surface]. (FScheck = 2.0 and yw= 10 kN/m³).
