Soil Parameters

Angle of Internal Friction, 16.0 deg
Soil Slope, 30.0 deg
Cohesion, c = 9.60 kPa
Soil Unit Weight, = 15.7 kN/m3
Factor of Safety, FS = 1.09

Solution
W= *H*x
W1 = N = W*cos
= *H*x*cos
= 13.6*H*x
W1 = N = 13.6*H*x

W2 = W*sin
= *H*x*sin
= 15.7*H*x*sin(30)
W2 = 7.85*H*x

F1 = N
= Tan *N
= Tan(16) * (13.6*H*x)
F1 = 3.9*H*x

F2 = c*y
= c*x/cos
= 9.6*x/cos(30)
F2 = 11.09*x

FS = (F1+F2)/W2
1.085 = (3.9*H*x+11.09*x)/(7.85*H*x)

c. Total Weight, Wt

Wt = WI + WS = 160.56 kN

d. Calculation of Forces

N = Wt ( cos )
= 154.34 kN
F1 = N ( Force due to friction )
= 89.11 kN
F2 = C ( Force due to cohesion )
= 0.00 kN ( cohesionless soil )

FR = F1 + F2 ( Resisting Force )
89.11 kN

FA = Wt ( sin ) ( Applied Force )

= 44.26 kN
F= FA - FR
= -44.85 kN
FS = FR / FA = 2.01
