By using the free earth support approach determine the factor of safety F r , the prop force F and themaximum bending moment on the wall for the propped wall shown above. Assume seepage occursaround the wall such that the hydraulic head varies linearly down and up around the wall. K an andK pn refer to the normal components of resultant horizontal stresses acting on the wall.
