Abstract EN
A method based on the application of Kötter’s equation is proposed for the complete analysis of active thrust on an inclined wall with inclined cohesionless backfill under surcharge effect.
Coulomb’s failure mechanism is considered in the analysis.
The point of application of active thrust is determined from the condition of moment equilibrium.
The coefficient of active pressure and the point of application of the active thrust are computed and presented in nondimensional form.
One distinguishing feature of the proposed method is its ability to determine the point of application of active thrust on the retaining wall.
A fairly good comparison is obtained with the existing solutions.
