Water is acting on the vertical side of a trapezoidal masonry dam 2m wide at the top, 15m wide at the bottom and 20m high. If the allowable compressive stress at the toe is 345kPa and neglecting the hydrostatic uplift. Compute the depth of water. Assume the unit weight of concrete=23.50kN/m3 From the previous problem, compute the factor of safety against overturning. From problem #7, compute the factor of safety against sliding. Use the u=0.60
