If the back fill is having a uniform surcharge of intensity q per unit area, the lateral pressure will be
q times the lateral pressure within the surface
1/q times the lateral pressure within the surface
equal to a fill of height Z equal to q/r, where r is the density of the backfill
none of these.
Correct Answer:
equal to a fill of height Z equal to q/r, where r is the density of the backfill
