Equation 3 shows that the mean pressure occurs at the centroid of the area. The above two steps constitute method 1 for solving this problem. The next three steps constitute method 2. 3. Now construct the pressure “prism” associated with the area In Fig. 2, construct the pressure prism associated with area CDE. The pressures are as fol- ................
