The concrete seawall given in Figure 4 has a curved surface and restrains seawater at a depth of 2,3 m. The trace of the surface is a parabola as illustrated. Determine the force of the fluid force (per unit length) with respect to an axis through the toe (point A). Seawater Peoneren: 2400 kg /m³ y = 0.2 H= 2,3 m
