Question 9 A8 m high retaining wall retains 5 m of clay which overlays 3 m of sand. The water table is at the surface of the retained soil. For the clay Ysat 15 kN/m³ and for the sand Ysat-18 kN/m³. The active earth pressure acting on the wall at surface (z = 0 m) is: 4 C₁ = 25 kPa 5m Clay $ = 10° c'=0 3m Sand o'= 30° O-42.0 kPa O 36.6 kPa O-36.6 kPa O 0 kPa
