If p1 and P2 are effective lateral loadings at the bottom and top exerted by a level earth subjected
to a super-load on the vertical face of height h of a retaining wall, the horizontal pressure p per
unit length of the wall, is
(A) [( - )/2] h
(B) [( + )/4] h
(C) [( + )/2] h
(D) ( - ) h
The correct Answer Is
(C) [( + )/2] h
