Problem 3. (30 Points) The backfill retained by a gravity retaining wall shown in the figure consists of two sand layers, compacted at different densities. The properties of the sand are shown in the figure. Assuming that the gravity wall does not move laterally, determine the magnitude and location of the thrust on the wall. Sand 1 6 m Y-18.5 kN/m'; $ - 28 gravity retaining wall Sand 2 4 m Y-19.5 kN/m; 6 = 34
