Excerpt from Practical Designing of Retaining Walls: With Appendices on Stresses in Masonry Dams The design of five different types of retaining-walls is given in detail not only for a horizontal earth surface but likewise for the earth surface at the angle of repose. The tables, giving ratio of base to height, ' for the most familiar types of walls, should prove especially valuable to constructors.

Excerpt from Retaining Walls: Their Design and Construction The presentation Of another book on retaining walls is made with the plea that it is essentially a text on the design and con struction Of retaining walls. The usual text on this subject places much emphasis upon the determination of the lateral thrust Of the retained earth; the design and construction Of the wall itself is subordinated to this analysis. Without gainsaying the importance Of the proper analysis Of the action Of earth masses, it is felt that such is properly Of secondary importance in comparison with the design Of the wall itself and the study Of the practical problems involved in its construction. It is the purpose Of the first chapter to present the existing theories Of lateral earth pressure and then to attempt to codify such theories evolving a simple, yet well-founded expression for the thrust. An attempt is made to continue this codification throughout the theories Of retaining wall design so that a direct and continu ous analysis may be made Of a wall from the preliminary selection Of the type to the finished section. Such mathematical work as is presented is given with this essential Object in view. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Retaining Walls: Their Design and Construction The presentation of another book on retaining walls is made with the plea that it is essentially a text on the design and construction of retaining walls. The usual text on this subject places much emphasis upon the determination of the lateral thrust of the retained earth; the design and construction of the wall itself is subordinated to this analysis. Without gainsaying the importance of the proper analysis of the action of earth masses, it is felt that such is properly of secondary importance in comparison with the design of the wall itself and the study of the practical problems involved in its construction. It is the purpose of the first chapter to present the existing theories of lateral earth pressure and then to attempt to codify such theories evolving a simple, yet well-founded expression for the thrust. An attempt is made to continue this codification throughout the theories of retaining wall design so that a direct and continuous analysis may be made of a wall from the preliminary selection of the type to the finished section. Such mathematical work as is presented is given with this essential object in view. Under Construction advantage is taken of a classic pamphlet on Plant issued by the Ransome Concrete Plant Co. (which pamphlet should be in the possession of every construction engineer) to illustrate the principles of proper plant selection. A retaining wall is a structure exposed to public scrutiny and must, therefore, present a pleasing, but not necessarily ornate appearance. Since, in the case of concrete walls, the appearance of the wall is dependent upon the character of the concrete work, it is essential that the edicts of good construction be observed. For this reason the modern development of concreting is presented fully with frequent extracts from some of the recent important reports of laboratory investigators. It is hoped that proper credit has been given to the authors of all such quoted passages, as well as to other references used.

Not illustrated. 1914 edition. Excerpt: ...0 and G acts downwards. Call the angle that AC makes with the horizontal y, and the angle FAC, ft. On drawing the parallelogram o forces as shown, we have, since E and G are proportional to the sines of the opposite angles in the triangle ONL, E _ sin ONL G sin NLO It is easily seen from the figure that ONL = y--, and that NLO = $ + ft-f f' hence the above general relation becomes, E __ sin (/--f).j. G sin ( + + ft);' Now, if we conceive the plane AC, always passing through the point A, to vary its position, that value of E, corresponding to the greatest value obtained by the construction above, is the thrust actually exerted against the wall; for, if AC is the plane of rupture corresponding to this greatest trial thrust, any less value of the resistance of the wall E will cause S to make an angle greater than f with the normal to AC, which (Art. 21) is inconsistent with the law of stability of a granular mass (also see Art. 25): hence the least thrust consistent with equilibrium corresponds to the greatest value of.Ethus obtained; and this is the actual active thrust exerted against the wall, when the wall simply resists the tendency to overturning or sliding on its base, caused by the tendency of the prism of rupture to descend. If there is a thrust exerted on the wall towards the earth, from any external force acting on the left of the wall; from left to right; then, if this be supposed to increase gradually, the active thrust of the earth on the right is first overcome; then, as the external force increases, the directions of S, on all planes as AC, approach the normals to those planes, pass them, and finally the full passive resistance of some prism of earth to sliding upwards along its base is brought into play.
