Excerpt from Graphical Determination of Earth Slopes, Retaining Walls and Dams
The fourth chapter is devoted to the design of retaining walls. Here will be found the most common types of wall used in practice, together with the manner of determining the thickness of their bases both graphically and analytically.
The fifth chapter is devoted to dams. The space devoted to a subject so popular and extensively discussed in schools and text-books may seem disproportionately small; but in the class room, dams should be taken for what they are; viz. A particular case of retaining walls in which the mate rial to be sustained is deprived of friction.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces methods to calculate the retaining walls and dams, i.e. the artificial structures used to restrain soil or water. The text presents both graphical and analytical methods, making it useful as a teaching tool and practical guide. The author covers a range of topics, from the internal forces of soil to the pressure exerted by soil on a retaining wall, delving into natural slope, cohesion, and the distribution of soil pressure. Engineers will find clear explanations of the different theoretical approaches, from Coulomb's theory to the analytical theory. The book demonstrates graphical methods of graphically determining earth pressure and its application to various engineering scenarios such as surcharged slopes. By balancing clarity with depth, this book acts as a valuable resource for students and engineers alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781332055562_0
