Estabilidad de Taludes

Define the geometry and materials of slopes to evaluate their stability by calculating the factor of safety (F.S.) of failure surfaces.

Bishop and Fellenius methods are used.

Define the slope geometry with its dimensions, slope angle or h:v ratio.

Define the slope material with its unit weight, cohesion, and internal friction angle.

Define the (circular) failure surface from its radius, center and/or points.

Obtain graph of the defined slope and failure surface.

Get safety factor, and summary tables with the data, procedure and results obtained.
