2. Thrust and stop coefficients
2.1 Geostatic case
The simple case of a semi-infinite, homogeneous and isotropic soil mass with a horizontal surface is referred to as the "geostatic case".
SCROLL TO TOP2.1.1 Land at rest: lateral pressure coefficient
The equations of mechanical equilibrium show that the total stress σ v exerted on a horizontal plane at depth z is vertical and has the value (figure 6...
