A 10 m high retaining wall retains 5 m of clay which overlays 5 m of sand (as shown in Figure below). The water table is at the surface of the retained soil. The magnitude of the lateral pressure (= active + hydrostatic) at the base of the sand layer (2= 10 m) is: V Clay: c'=25 kPa. -12° Y = 16 kN/m² 5m 10m Sand: -0,38 718 kN/m² 130 kPa O202 2 kPa 98.1 kPa
