An L-shaped reinforced concrete slab 12 Ft X 12 ft, with a 6 Ft X 6 ft cut-out and thickness t = 9.0 in, is lifted by three cables attached at O, B, and D, as shown in the figure. The cables are are combined at point Q, which is 7.0 Ft above the top of the slab and directly above the center of mass at C. Each cable has an effective cross-sectional area of Ae= 0.12 in2.

Three identical circular disks A, B, and Care welded to the ends of three identical solid circular bars (see figure).

Each bar has diameter d1= 0.5 in. and each disk has diameter d2= 3.0 in. Forces P1, P2, and P3act on disks A, B, and C, respectively, thus subjecting the bars to torsion.

For analysis purposes, the wall and shores are idealized as shown in the second part of the figure. Note that the base of the wall and both ends of the shores are assumed to be pinned. The pressure of the soil against the wall is assumed to be triangularly distributed, and the resultant force acting on a 3-meter length of the walls is F = 190 kN.
