Article shared by :
In this article we have compiled three main theories given by Coulomb for studying earth pressure. The theories are: 1. Coulomb’s Wedge Theory for Earth Pressure 2. Coulomb’s Theory of Active Earth Pressure 3. Coulomb’s Theory for Passive Earth Pressure. 1. Coulomb’s Wedge Theory for Earth Pressure: Coulomb (1776) developed the wedge theory for determination […]
