Dynamic Earth Pressure

The document provides information for calculating earth pressures on a retaining wall, including coefficients of active and passive earth pressure, soil unit weight, depth of soil, wall and slope angles, and seismic coefficients. It then lists the static active and passive earth pressures as 18.79 kN/m^2 and 144.59 kN/m^2, respectively. The dynamic active and passive earth pressures are also calculated and listed as 2.26 kN/m^2 and 62.68 kN/m^2, respectively.
