CEGR 456 EARTH STRUCTURES AND SLOPES
PROJECT
A
Write a comprehensive report on several case histories that are reported on the damage created by earth quake and the rehabilitation works implemented, including the collapse of a high cut slope, the excessive settlement of embankments in lowland areas, the significant scoring of the backfill soil of bridge abutments, the restoration works of tilted bridge foundations and the tsunamiinduced collapse of soil-retaining walls and bridge foundation.
B
Following are the design parameters of the retaining wall that you are required to design
Height the wall will retain = 7.5m
Soil density = 19.0 KN/m3
Bearing Capacity of Soil = 245 KN/m2
Co-efficient of friction between concrete and soil = 0.57
The angle of repose = 34
Use appropriate concrete and steel for your design
