How to Calculate Depth of Prism given Factor of Safety for Cohesive Soil?
Depth of Prism given Factor of Safety for Cohesive Soil calculator uses Depth of Prism = Unit Cohesion/((Factor of Safety-(tan((Angle of Internal Friction of Soil))/tan((Angle of Inclination))))*Unit Weight of Soil*cos((Angle of Inclination))*sin((Angle of Inclination))) to calculate the Depth of Prism, The Depth of Prism given Factor of Safety for Cohesive Soil is defined as the minimum depth required to prevent slope failure in cohesive soil with a specified factor of safety. Depth of Prism is denoted by z symbol.
