CEEN 341 - Lecture 23 - Lateral Earth Pressures, Part I

  • Опубліковано 28 лис 2017
  • This lesson introduces the concept of lateral earth pressures and how geotechnical engineers compute them using lateral earth pressure coefficients. The differences between active, passive, and at-rest cases are explained. Rankine passive and active earth pressure coefficients are derived for cohesionless soil, and an example retaining wall problem is solved.
    Learning Objectives:
    1) Explain the differences between passive, active, and at-rest lateral earth pressure.
    2) Compute the Rankine active and/or passive lateral pressure coefficient(s) for a given cohesionless soil.
    3) Solve the equivalent lateral earth force (active or passive) acting on a wall, including the possibility for multiple soil layers, water behind the wall, and a surcharge on top of the wall.

    I pay around $20K per year for tuition fees for my university and I had to watch your video to understand LEP. Thank you very much for doing this for free, really appreciate it

      same here bro in university teachers are just reading from their PDFS and they don't care whether students are understanding the concepts or not....that's why i have to watch UA-cam every time to get clear concepts for the topics being taught in class

  • @ing.erickosorio2887
    @ing.erickosorio2887 5 років тому

    I was wondering what happens when we have an inclined wall, lets say 60° with respect to the horizontal axis, and we have earth underneath that inclined wall, as for example in a water channel, where the walls are not vertical but they must be inclined in most cases. I kind of think that in that case it would be the soil supporting the wall which is resting on the soil and not having to be design agaisnt any active pressure. am I correct?

    in step 5 of the example, i think the bottom layer should be shorter, as the 24.5 in the middle layer is longer than the 23.4. Other than that, this is awesome!

      2/3 the height is used to locate the centroid from the top of a triangle. We are dealing with areas, not centroids. 1/2 base * height gives you the area of a triangle.

    Doeas anyone knows, what if we have a cohesion soil fully saturated (water).. Do we count the active pressure (minus porus water pressure) or do we measure only the total pressure (without the water) e.g. Kaxσtot instead of kax σ' - γwxz

    hey,You are doing it wrong .The effective stress due to saturated soil will be soil minus the pore water pressure .You shoulhd substract water pressure from pressure due to saturated sooil.

    • @officehours4028

      Whether you use a buoyant unit weight or you subtract water pressures from the equivalent fluid pressure from the saturated soil, you will get the same result.
