Analysing an Arch
In this video, we look into a three-hinged arch with tie. This problem is extracted from Structural Analysis book by RC Hibbeler. In this question, w…

Retaining Structures-Cohesion
Cohesion is favourable as it holds the soil together and reduces, if not preventing the yielding of soil mass. Tension crack may occur, and this is…

Retaining Structures-Pore Water Pressure
Unlike soil, water exerts pressure equally toward all directions. Therefore, pore water pressure exerted laterally to the retaining structure equal…

Retaining Structures-Pressure Due to Vertical Load
Lateral earth pressure is mainly contributed by soil self-weight. The higher the soil retained, the greater the pressure. When dealing with multi…
