Abstract
Silvestri 1223 The author has to be commended for obtaining an elegant solution to the problem of the Coulomb active thrust exerted by a cohesionless backfill and a vertical line load. This discusser has been using a slightly different approach for several years. The active thrust is firstly obtained in the absence of the line load. In such a case, the active thrust Fca (maximum value) is generally found by means of the wellknown Coulomb equation
