    Embankment flow net and heave

    I'm trying to calculate the piping FoS and heave from a flow net. I've attached the below but it was a quick sketch just to lay it out (please ignore scales/accuracy etc. - I did this for the purpose of this question). There's no sheet pile or toe in the embankment, though the embankment will...
