Question 1 A vertical frictionless retaining wall is 6-m high with a horizontal granular backfill. Given: Y= 16 kN/m2 and p'=30°. For the translation mode of the wall, calculate the active pressure at depths z = 1.5 m, 3 m, 4.5 m, and 6 m. Question 2 Consider a 4-m high retaining wall with a vertical back and horizontal granular backfill, as shown in the Figure below. Given: Y=18kN/m2, (p=40°, c'=0, 6' =20°, kv =0 and kn=0.2. Determine the passive force Ppe per unit length of the wall taking the earthquake effect into consideration.
