Given the dimension of a gravity dam with top base = 2m, bottom
base =6m, height = 8m and depth of water at the upstream side is
6m (acting on vertical side of the dam). Neglect hydrostatic uplift
and use unit weight of concrete equal to 20 kN/m?. The coefficient
of friction between the base of the dam and the foundation is 0.6.
Determine the Factor of safety against sliding.
