Sample Problems

Determine the magnitude of


the resultant hydrostatic
force acting on the surface
of a seawall shaped in the
form of a parabola as shown
The wall is 5 m long: (dw =
1020 kg/m3 .

wb = 1020 x 9.81 x 5
= 150.1 kN/m

Sample Problems

Fh = (150)(3)
= 225.1 KN

Fv = Aw(9.81)
= 1/3 (3)(1)(5)(9.81)

= 49.01 kN

For Resultant

Pol(225.1,49.01)

(230,12.28)

Same as sqrt(225.1^2 + 49.01^2)

The regular way of solving this problem


it to transform the equation to linear
equation
ln Z = lnK + m ln t
Graph solve for slope and intercept
I = ln k
