SOLVE FOR THE LOCATION AND MAGNITUDE OF THE PASSIVE AND ACTIVE THRUST OF THE RETAINING WALL. Along the passive side, the soil has the following properties: unit weight: 16 kN/m3, cohesion = 30 KPa, angle of internal friction = 25 degrees. and along the active side: sand: unit weight = 15 KN/m3, angle of internal friction = 30 degrees, and for clay: dry unit weight = 16.5 KN/m3, saturated unit weight = 19 kn/m3 , unconfined compressive strength = 48 KPa, angle of inter friction is 25 degrees.
