Q6: The figure represents a homogeneous earth dam with a horizontal filter. The construction cost per certain possible height (H) of this dam at a given site has been estimated and tabulated below. The storage capacity for all these heights is also given. 5 Dam height (H) (m) Construction cost (Million ID) Storage capacity (Million m3) 10 15 20 25 30 500 800 1100 1500 2200 3100 100 210 340 440 550 590 The characteristics related to the reservoir upstream of the earth dam are: - - The wind velocity (V) - 50 Km/hr - A straight length of water expanse (F) = 35 Km Find the coordinates of the top seepage line (Phreatic surface). 25m 35 4100 680
