The completed flow net for the dam shown below includes a steel sheet-pile cutoff wall located at the head-water side of the dam in order to reduce the seepage loss. The dam is half a kilometer in width (shore to shore) and the permeability of the silty sand stratum is 3.5 x 10 cm/s. Find, (a) the total seepage loss under the dam in liters per year, and (b) would the dam be more stable if the cutoff wall was placed under its tail-water side?
