Transmission And Substation Foundations - Technical Design Manual (TD06088E)
Solution P a
= 0.5K a g H 2
Equation 7-20
= 0.5 x 0.2 x 95 x 42 = 152 lb/ft = 0.5K p g H 2 = 0.5 x 3 x 95 x 42 = 2280 lb/ft
P p
P p - P a
= 2280 - 152 = 2128 lb/ft
Total lateral resistance
= 2128 x 25'-0 = 53,200 lbs
NOTE: In this example, more than 1” of movement will probably be required to fully mobilize the total lateral resistance. Partial mobilization requires less deflection.
