Chapter 9.5, Problem 123P
The factor of safety for tipping of the concrete dam is defined as the ratio of the stabilizing moment due to the dam’s weight divided by the overturning moment about O due to the water pressure. Determine this factor if the concrete has a density of ρconc = 2.5 Mg/m3 and for water ρw = 1 Mg/m3.
