Excerpt from Retaining-Walls for Earth: The Theory as Developed by Prof. Jacob J. Weyrauch; Expanded and Supplemented by Practical Examples, With Notes on Later Investigations
The following theory of Prof. Weyrauch is presented for the use of the practical man, although, at the first glance, the array of mathematical formulae may cause him to smile at such a statement. However, a brief examination of the results and their practical applications should con vince him that a long-felt want has been supplied, not only in the graphical constructions that can be performed anywhere with the simplest instruments, but by formulae so simple that substitutions can be made and solutions obtained in a very short time.

Paperback. Condizione: 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.
