Question

Can you draw a free body diagram of this problem and given solution? so I can clearly understand. The first picture is the figure. Figure shows a semi-conical buttress. Calculate the total hydrostatic force acting on the surface of this semi-conical buttress.

Step 1 Solution
Slanted height -
1 = } x2x3x1.5
→l = 4.5m
Centroid -
y = 1.3 + x3
→ y = 2.3m
Force in the horizonal direction -
F. = Yw (y × I)
> F, = 9.81 x (4 × 2. 3)
→ F, =
101. 5335 KN
+ Step 2
Force in the vertical direction -
F, = [} {}-0*h} + {}«0? x 1.3}](y»)
→ F, = ; {}«(1.5)² x 3} + {}x(1.5)² × 1.3}]x9.81
→ F, = [3.5343 + 4.5946] x 9. 81
> F, = 79.7445 KN
