The masonry dam shown in the figure is subjected to water pressure at upstream side. It is built on a rock foundation. It is made of masonry having a weight of 150 pounds per cubic foot. The intensity of hydrostatic pressure at the base varies uniformly from 20% of the full hydrostatic pressure at the heel to zero at the toe. Calculate the minimum width "b" of the base such that no tension will occur at the base. Hint: so that no tension will occur at the base, the resultant reaction must act at one third of the base. Round off your answer into one decimal place. Answer: b = 9m 2m 1m H m b
