LATERAL EARTH PRESSURE COEFFICIENTS


Ka (internal stability) = 0.2379 (if batter is less than 10°, Ka is calculated from eq. 15. Otherwise, eq. 38 is utilized)
Inclination of internal slip plane,  = 64.00° (see Fig. 28 in DEMO 82).
Ka (external stability) = 0.2710 (if batter is less than 10°, Ka is calculated from eq. 16. Otherwise, eq. 17 is utilized)

BEARING CAPACITY
Bearing capacity is controlled by general shear.
Bearing capacity factors (calculated by MSEW): Nc = 38.64 N  = 35.19

SEISMICITY
A wedge with maximum extent of D = 20.00 m, measured horizontally from the toe, replaces M-O equation. M-O equation is strictly
for homogeneous backfill with uniform backslope extending to infinity. D sets a realistic limit on these assumptions to produce Kae
alternative to M-O equation.

Maximum ground acceleration coefficient, A = 0.160


Design acceleration coefficient in Internal Stability: Kh = Am = 0.206
Design acceleration coefficient in External Stability: Kh_d = 0.206 => Kh = Am = 0.206

Kae ( Kh > 0 ) = 0.4004 Kae ( Kh = 0 ) = 0.2710  Kae = 0.1294


Seismic soil-geotextile friction coefficient, F* is 100.0% of its specified static value.
