Height from Toe of Wedge to Top of Wedge given Factor of Safety Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Height from Toe of Wedge to Top of Wedge given Factor of Safety?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

H = (\frac{C eff}{(\frac{1}{2}) \cdot (F s - (\frac{\tan (\frac{φ \cdot π}{180})}{\tan (\frac{θ cr \cdot π}{180})})) \cdot γ \cdot (\frac{\sin (\frac{(i - θ cr) \cdot π}{180})}{\sin (\frac{i \cdot π}{180})}) \cdot \sin (\frac{θ cr \cdot π}{180})})

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

Next Step Convert Units

∴

H = (\frac{320Pa}{(\frac{1}{2}) \cdot (2.8 - (\frac{\tan (\frac{0.8029rad \cdot 3.1416}{180})}{\tan (\frac{0.9093rad \cdot 3.1416}{180})})) \cdot 18000N/m³ \cdot (\frac{\sin (\frac{(1.117rad - 0.9093rad) \cdot 3.1416}{180})}{\sin (\frac{1.117rad \cdot 3.1416}{180})}) \cdot \sin (\frac{0.9093rad \cdot 3.1416}{180})})

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

H = (\frac{320}{(\frac{1}{2}) \cdot (2.8 - (\frac{\tan (\frac{0.8029 \cdot 3.1416}{180})}{\tan (\frac{0.9093 \cdot 3.1416}{180})})) \cdot 18000 \cdot (\frac{\sin (\frac{(1.117 - 0.9093) \cdot 3.1416}{180})}{\sin (\frac{1.117 \cdot 3.1416}{180})}) \cdot \sin (\frac{0.9093 \cdot 3.1416}{180})})

Next Step Evaluate

∴
