Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a practical method to determine earth thrust and its direction for a wall not leaning backward. The method is based on the author's theory of earth pressure, which assumes the forces upon any imaginary plane-section through the mass of earth have the same direction. Notably, the theory does not make arbitrary assumptions as to the direction of the earth-pressure and is experimentally derived solely with reference to three necessary conditions of equilibrium. As such, this book is useful for engineers who require a reliable method to calculate earth pressure for retaining walls. Its simple yet scientifically sound approach provides accurate results and simplifies complex calculations, making it a valuable resource for professionals in the field. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333070519_0
