Soil Mechanics and Foundation A retaining wall 6m high supports a backfill with a surcharge angle of 10°. The back of the wall is inclined to the vertical at a positive batter angle of 5°. If the angle of wall friction is 7°, then the resultant active earth pressure will act at a distance of 2 m above the base and inclined to the horizontal at an angle of 12° 17° 10° 7° 12° 17° 10° 7° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
