//Let L=1 m (length of dam)

//W=(a+b)*2**-1*L*H*rho_mason*10**-3
//After substituting values and Further simplifying we get

//Pressure at B=0, Sinc etension at base has just been avoided

//Eccentricity
e=b*6**-1  //as sigma1=0

//Pressure at C
//sigma2=W2*b**-1*(1+6*e*b**-1)
//After substituting values and Further simplifying we get

//From equation1,440*b=338*(a+b)
//b=3.33*a

//After substituting values and Further simplifying we get

//distance of pt where resultant cuts the base
//x=P*W2**-1*H*3**-1
//After substituting values and Further simplifying we get

//Now x_bar+x=2*3**-1*b
