    Earth Retaining Structures were amongst the first to be analyzed using the concepts of mechanics. In this lecture, we'll learn the theory of earth pressure that is used to analyze the stability of retaining walls. Earth pressures are a function of type and amount of wall movement, shear strength properties, weight of soil and drainage.

    LATERAL EARTH PRESSURE

    CE352A

    Dr. Rajesh Sathiyamoorthy, IIT Kanpur

    EarthRetainingStructures
    Earth retaining structures are common in a manmade
    environment.

    These structures were amongst the first to be


    analyzed using the concepts of mechanics.

    One of the most popular earth retaining structure is


    a retaining wall.

    In this lecture, well learn the theory of earth


    pressure that is used to analyze the stability of
    retaining walls.

    It will help you a great deal if you revised the


    following important concepts:
    - Static equilibrium, Effective Stress, Mohrs
    Stress Circle and Shear Strength of Soils

    EarthPressureCoefficients
    The ratio of horizontal and vertical principal effective stresses is termed as
    Coefficient of Earth pressure

    Active earth pressure coefficient (Ka):


    It is the ratio of horizontal and vertical principal effective stresses when
    a retaining wall moves away (by a small amount) from the retained soil.
    Passive earth pressure coefficient (Kp):
    It is the ratio of horizontal and vertical principal effective stresses when
    a retaining wall is forced against a soil mass.
    Coefficient of earth pressure at rest (K0):
    It is the ratio of horizontal and vertical principal effective stresses when
    the retaining wall does not move at all, i.e. it is at rest.
