The cross section of a concrete dam is shown in the figure. Take the weight-density (= pg) of water to be 10 kN/m³ and that of concrete to be 25 kN/m³. For the given design of the cross-section, find the ratio h/H that is safe enough for the dam to not tip over (about the downstream edge E). Here you will enter the numerical answer. In the handworked file you must show your worked solution. H E 60° H/10 4H/10 h
