Stability Charts and Other Solutions
Publication: Slope Stability Analysis by the Limit Equilibrium Method: Fundamentals and Methods
Abstract
Stability charts that apply only to cylindrical failure surfaces are the focus of this chapter. The chapter also includes charts for triangular and trapezoidal fills on rock or stiff slopes, triangular fills on soil slopes, and earth dams and embankments, and some new charts for the effective stress analysis of nonhomogeneous dams. The well known friction circle and logarithmic spiral methods are also presented.
