A rigid smooth retaining wall of height 7 m with vertical back face retains saturated clay as backfill.
The saturated unit weight and undrained cohesion of the backfill are
17.2kN/m3 and 20 kPa, respectively. The difference in the active lateral forces on the wall (in KN per meter length of wall up to two decimal places), before and after the occurrence of tension cracks is
