Problem
1. Compute the optimum height of a main dyke for a coastal pond site located in a flood free zone. The site is 1 m above zero datum, height of highest astronomical tide above the zero datum being 3 m. Assume medium soil for the give site.
Elevation of ground surface with respect to zero datum
Hg = 1m
Highest astronomical tide above the zero datum Ht = 3 m
Allowance to be given for flood = fa = o
For given soil condition %S = 15
Assume minimum free board of 60 cm , fb= 0.6m
