Overburden Calculations for Trench Stability

1. The document provides details of a stability check for a 3m deep trench, including soil parameters, groundwater levels, surcharge, and calculations of active and passive pressures. 2. Active pressures were calculated for fill soil from 106.6mRL to 103.8mRL and underlying UMC soil, resulting in a total active moment of -852.5 kNm/m. 3. Passive pressures for underlying UMC soil from 103.3mRL to 100.8mRL resulted in a total passive moment of 452.5 kNm/m. 4. The calculated bending moment capacity of the wall is 45 kNm/m, and the ratio of passive moment plus
