University of Notre DameECONOMICS 333Assignment Retaining Wall_Question.
Document Content and Description Below
Specific the function of retaining wall and describe the compulsory elements that should be designed for a retaining wall to retain well-drained soil with depth more than 5 m. (b) A cantilever wall ... as shown in figure below support a bank earth 5.0 m height. The soil behind the wall has density of 1900 kg/m3 with angle of internal friction of 30º. Given the following data: Characteristic strength of concrete = 35 N/mm2 Characteristic strength of steel = 500 N/mm2 Coefficient of friction = 0.5 Soil cohesion = 0 Soil bearing pressure = 150 kN/m2 Earth pressure = 31.67 kN/m2 (i) Determine the total horizontal load, vertical load and moment of the retaining wall. (ii) Check the soil pressure at the toe of retaining wall. (iii) Predict the ability of retaining wall toward stability against overturning, resistance to sliding and settlement. (iv) Design the bending reinforcement using bar diameter=20mm, cover=45mm. [Show More]
