Answer»

Right option is (a) hydrostatic load

The BEST I can explain: Hydrostatic load is considered on LIQUID retaining STRUCTURES or hydraulic structures. Wave and current load is considered in marine and offshore structure. Earth pressure is considered in basements, retaining walls, column footings, etc.Dynamic load is DUE to earthquake and WIND.
