Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive guide to the critical issue of slope stability and safety Soil Strength and Slope Stability, Second Edition presents the latest thinking and techniques in the assessment of natural and man-made slopes, and the factors that cause them to survive or crumble. Using clear, concise language and practical examples, the book explains the practical aspects of geotechnical engineering as applied to slopes and embankments. The new second edition includes a thorough discussion on the use of analysis software, providing the background to understand what the software is doing, along with several methods of manual analysis that allow readers to verify software results. The book also includes a new case study about Hurricane Katrina failures at 17th Street and London Avenue Canal, plus additional case studies that frame the principles and techniques described. Slope stability is a critical element of geotechnical engineering, involved in virtually every civil engineering project, especially highway development. Soil Strength and Slope Stability fills the gap in industry literature by providing practical information on the subject without including extraneous theory that may distract from the application. This balanced approach provides clear guidance for professionals in the field, while remaining comprehensive enough for use as a graduate-level text. Topics include: Mechanics of soil and limit equilibrium procedures Analyzing slope stability, rapid drawdown, and partial consolidation Safety, reliability, and stability analyses Reinforced slopes, stabilization, and repair The book also describes examples and causes of slope failure and stability conditions for analysis, and includes an appendix of slope stability charts. Given how vital slope stability is to public safety, a comprehensive resource for analysis and practical action is a valuable tool. Soil Strength and Slope Stability is the definitive guide to the subject, proving useful both in the classroom and in the field.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geotechnical engineers deal with some challenging problems when encountering long-term slope stability in overconsolidated clays and clayey shales. One of these problems is determining a suitable method to estimate the reliable shear strength of overconsolidated clayey soils for long-term slope stability. According to Eversol (2013), one half of the counties in Nebraska have experienced slope failure in overconsolidated soils, especially in north and east Nebraska. In this research, shear strength characteristics of overconsolidated clayey soils of Nebraska is investigated in regard to long-term stability of slopes, and the failure mechanism in such soils is examined. Undisturbed samples from boring logs from two different failure locations were taken. The research involved laboratory testing to compare and investigate the shear strength parameters of overconsolidated soils in undrained and drained conditions at high and low normal effective stress levels. Some issues that are addressed include: (i) the shear strength reduction due to low effective stress in adrained condition, (ii) the swelling behavior during consolidation and shearing stages of saturated overconsolidated soils in low effective confining stress, (iii) the suitable shear strength that helps to design/repair slopes in overconsolidated soils of Nebraska. One major finding of this research is that one of the main reasons for slope instability in overconsolidated clayey soils and shales in Nebraska is shear strength reduction. This strength reduction, which usually causes a progressive failure in overconsolidated soils in Nebraska, is due to swelling and softening; (2) the presence of expansive clay minerals in overconsolidated soils induced additional swelling in some areas reduces the shear strength of soils dramatically, especially at shallow depths; and (3) the laboratory results showed that the fully softened shear strength from a consolidated drained triaxial test may present a suitable shear strength for long-term slope stability in overconsolidated soils in Nebraska.
