A gravity retaining wall retains 12 m of a backfill, y = 17.7 kN/m² = 25° with a uniform horizontal surface. Assume the wall interface to be vertical, determine the magni tude and point of application of the total active pressure. If the water table is a height of 6 m. how far do the magnitude and the point of application of active pressure changed?
