DIRECTION: All answers must be reflected in the sheets provided. Only calculator, test questionnaire, sheets and pens are
allowed. Deposit other belongings in fi'ont ofthe olassroom. Use NSCP 2010 Code.

Problem 3: A retaining wall shown in the figure supports

an inclined backfill. The ground surface also carries a
uniform surcharge q = 20 kPa. Allowable net soil
bearing pressure at thE base ofthe footing is 260 kPa.
Coefficient of fristion between the soil and the base
is p : 0.55. Assume drains are provided to prevent
the built-up of waler pressure behind the wall. Use
the following values: f'" = 2& MPa and f, :4W
MPa. Other data are given in the figure. Assume 75
mm as steel covering. Determine the following:

a. Factcir of safety against sliding and overturning.

(5 pts)
b. Effective depth of the base of the stem. (5 pts)
c. Vertical & horizontal reinforcernents ofthe stem
ofthe retaining wall. (10 pts)
d. Adequacy ofshear capacity ofthe stern (5 pts)
e. Adequacy ofbearing capacity ofthe soil (5 pts)
f. Steel reinforcemeflt at the toe and the heel oftha
base using 28 mm 6 as main bars and a 12 mm fi
