Excerpt from Retaining-Walls for Earth: The Theory as Developed by Prof. Jacob J. Weyrauch; Expanded and Supplemented by Practical Examples, With Notes on Later Investigations
The following theory of Prof. Weyrauch is presented for the use of the practical man, although, at the first glance, the array of mathematical formulae may cause him to smile at such a statement. However, a brief examination of the results and their practical applications should con vince him that a long-felt want has been supplied, not only in the graphical constructions that can be performed anywhere with the simplest instruments, but by formulae so simple that substitutions can be made and solutions obtained in a very short time.
