土压力计算的讨论

Discussion on Earth Pressure Calculation

土压力计算在实际工程中是比较复杂的，一般均要进行简化处理。现在我们计算土压力常用的两种理论为朗肯土压力理论及库伦土压力理论，但两种土压力理论各有自己的假定及适用条件，在应用时需认真斟酌，选出与实际最接近的土压力理论进行计算土压力。

Earth pressure calculations are complicated in the real practice and they usually need to be simplified. Currently two theories that we often use are Rankine＇s earth pressure theory and Coulomb＇s earth pressure theory, but they both have their own assumption and application conditions, so careful consideration is required to work out the earth pressure by selecting the earth pressure theory, that is mostly close to the practice.
