Figure 15.47 shows an infinite slope with H = 9.14 m and the groundwater table coinciding with the ground surface. If there is seepage through the soil, determine the factor of safety against sliding along the plane AB. The soil properties are Gs = 2.7, e = 0.8, β = 16°, ϕ′ = 21°, and c′ = 59.8 kN/m2.

A long slope is made up of a cohesionless (c'=0) soil with the internal friction angle of 34°. If the water table rises to the surface of the slope, then determine the maximum possible value of the slope angle to get a factor of safety of 1.5. Take saturated unit weight as18 kN/m3 and the unit weight of water as 10 kN/m3.

1. A trapezoidal channel with a 5-m bottom width and side slope m = 1.0 discharges 35 m3/s. The slope is 0.004 and is paved with smooth concrete (n = 0.012). a. What is the critical depth? b. What is the normal depth? c. Is it a mild slope, or steep?Hint: Compare critical depth with normal depth OR find the critical slope (??) and compare it with bed slope(?0) d. Is the depth increasing or decreasing upstream? Why would that be (e.g. a spillway, dam, etc.)?Hint: For the first part, use ????=?0−?1−??2 to show if the depth is decreasing/increasing (either by finding Fr and S, OR by simply using the values of ?, ?? and ?0 to figure out if the fraction is +/-). e. How would you conceptualize the flow – what regime (e.g., S1, S2, S3, M1, M2, M3 in Figure 10.20)? f. Determine the depth 3.3 m upstream from a section that has a measured depth of 1.69 m.Hint: If you are using MATLAB, solve the GVF differential equation (????=?0−?1−??2) and find flow depth y at location x = -3.3 m.

A sloping distance is measured with a 30-m steel tape. The measurements made are 30.00 m on a 7 degrees’ slope, 26.37 m on a 15 degrees’ slope and 29.50 m on a 1:2 ½ slope (V:H). What is the total horizontal distance in meter? (use the approximate slope correction formula for gentle slopes). CONSIDER 3-DECIMAL PLACES FOR THE FINAL ANSWER)
