The loss of head caused by upward seepage between the levels of A and B is h. The effective stress calculations at Points A, B, and C are as follows: At A, Total Stress: σ = Hଵγ௪ Pore Water Pressure: u = Hଵγ௪ Effective Stress: σ ᇱ = σ − u = 0 At B, Total Stress: σ = Hଵγ௪ + Hଶγ௦௧ Pore Water Pressure: u = (Hଵ + Hଶ + h)γ௪ Effective Stress: σ ᇱ = σ − u = Hଶ (γ௦௧ − γ௪) − hγ௪ = Hଶγ ᇱ − hγ௪ At C, i = ுమ Total Stress: σ = Hଵγ௪ + zγ௦௧ Pore Water Pressure: u = (Hଵ + z + iz)γ௪ Effective Stress: σ ᇱ = σ − u = z(γ௦௧ − γ௪) − izγ௪ = zγᇱ − izγ௪ Figure 3.
