STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Intensity of Normal Stress: 1200 Pascal --> 1200 Pascal No Conversion Required
Load on Buttress Dams: 15 Kilonewton --> 15000 Newton (Check conversion here)
Cross-Sectional Area of Base: 13 Square Meter --> 13 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Moment of Inertia of Horizontal Section: 23 Meter⁴ --> 23 Meter⁴ No Conversion Required
Bending Moment: 53 Newton Meter --> 53 Newton Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Y_t = (((σ_i-(p/A_cs))*I_H)/M_b) --> (((1200-(15000/13))*23)/53)

Evaluating ... ...

What is Buttress Dam ?

A buttress dam or hollow dam is a dam with a solid, water-tight upstream side that is supported at intervals on the downstream side by a series of buttresses or supports. The dam wall may be straight or curved. Most buttress dams are made of reinforced concrete and are heavy, pushing the dam into the ground.
