The resulting value of pressure u 1 at the toe of the slope is equal to zero.
The resulting compressive water force V acting in the direction normal to the tension crack is given by:ĭeflection of tension crack from vertical Height of GWT above the line of intersection of slip surface and tension crack The value of uplift pressure u at the intersection of slip surface and tension crack is given by: Hydrostatic pressure on slip surface and on tension crack
The tool has options to control the pitch of surfaces by adjusting a lines ribbon orientation, or adding points with normals. The slip surface is entirely below the groundwater table, the GWT either intersects the tension crack or is aligned with the terrain (water can outflow at the slope heel), the maximal value of uplift pressure is at the intersection of tension crack and slip surface. The Leapfrog Geo 4.0 polyline is a unified editing and interpretation tool, supporting full 3D drawing modes for curved and straight lines, as well as single points.
