Question 6 - Slab Design The stability of the following needs to be checked. Design the wall based on the following data: Soil Data: Retaining Wall Data: Unit weight of soil y = 17 kN/m3 Top of Stem: 0.3 m Unit weight of concrete ve = 24 kN/m Bottom of Stem: 0.4 m Internal angle of friction o = 36° Length of Toe: 0.4 m Coefficient of friction between concrete bases Length of footing base: 2.0 m and soil i = 0.55 Bearing capacity of the soil qu = 300 kN/m2 Thickness of footing: 0.3 m Height of the retaining wall: 2.85m m3 Calculate: a. Sketch the proportions of the wall b. Factor of safety against sliding c. Factor of safety against overturning d. Factoring of safety against subsiding [3 marks) [9 marks) [9 marks) [9 marks) *** THE END ***
