The following figure shows the cross-section of an anchored sheet pile wall. The soil properties and some wall dimensions are shown in the figure and spacing between anchor rods is 2.0 m (center to center). Design the wall using Rankine theory; i.e., calculate the depth of embedment of the wall (D), tensile force on each rod
Q2: A circular concrete culvert of diameter 120 cm carries water of depth 75 cm to irrigate a 30-hectare field. What could be the discharge of this canal if the slope was 0.002? Use Manning's n= 0.014. TWO
A farm of 40 hectares is supplied by open field drains. The spacing of these drains were selected to be 100m and the length of each drain is 600 m. If the drainage coefficient is 4 cm/day, find: 1- Discharge at the end of a field drain. 2- Total discharge passed through the collector drain. 3- The dimension of open drains, if n= 0.03, S= 0.00035 and Z= 1.5
