Coulomb theory of lateral earth pressure as applied to the design of anchored bulkheads.
General design equations are developed and presented in a graphical form to provide: (a) depth of pile penetration; (b) maximum bending moment on the wall; and (c) force in the anchor rod. To represent true field situations, the factors affecting the design are considered as random variables.
