The above figure shows a concrete gravity retaining
wall supporting two layers of soil.
Answer the following questions (a, b, c, d, e, f, g &
h).
Note:
1. Use Rankine's theory of active pressure.
2. Complete solution with diagrams is required for
PS2.
3. In all the steps in your solution, round the answers
to three decimal places. This is important so your
answer will match the answer key.
