In the Lindeburg sample exam, problem #14 morning, we are suppose to find the cohesion factor of safety. This should be easy enough, just use the Taylor chart to get No, c, the effective specific weight and H. In the solution, Lindeburg doesn't use the effective specific weight...Why??? This is driving me insane. The text says to use effective specific weight...take the saturated density subtract out the specific weight of water...What am I doing wrong?
Help please....Thank you!
