Here, h depends upon shape so every shape has a different value of h. So pressure varies with shape also as for concerned to dams.

@All.
As you all said P=yh does not depend on shape because you already assuming that dam's upstream face is vertical. But what if the upstream face is not vertical.
You have to solve the pressure as you did in the hydrostatic pressure chapter in fluid mechanics.
