Driving Moment given Radius of Slip Circle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Driving Moment = Radius of Slip Circle*Sum of All Tangential Component in Soil Mechanics
M_D = r*F_t
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Driving Moment - (Measured in Kilonewton Meter) - Driving Moment is the moment (or torque) that drives or causes rotational movement in a soil mass or structural element, such as a retaining wall or pile foundation.
Radius of Slip Circle - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of Slip Circle is the distance between center and one point on slip circle.
Sum of All Tangential Component in Soil Mechanics - (Measured in Newton) - Sum of All Tangential Component in Soil Mechanics means total tangential component.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radius of Slip Circle: 0.6 Meter --> 0.6 Meter No Conversion Required
Sum of All Tangential Component in Soil Mechanics: 11 Newton --> 11 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

M_D = r*F_t --> 0.6*11

Evaluating ... ...

M_D = 6.6

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6600 Newton Meter -->6.6 Kilonewton Meter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

6.6 Kilonewton Meter <-- Driving Moment

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
