How do you characterise the ground water regime?1) Knowledge of the geology – soil sequence, rock type, jointing.2) Observation – surface flows, surface ponding, vegetation? 3) Direct measurement - water strikes in trial pits and boreholes,
,piezometers4) Backanalysis of failures.

Factor of safety (F) = Resisting forcesDriving forces
When F < 1 Resisting forces exceed driving forces and slope has failed.When F> 1 Resisting forces are less than the driving forces so the slope is
stable.
Therefore F is a measure of the degree of stability of the slope.

Undertaking a single slope stability analysis is quite complicated In most cases you won’t know the shape or depth of the most critical (worst) failure surface. Need to undertake many calculations to determine which has the lowest factor of safety.There are a couple of ways to speed up the process:
1) using slope stability charts2) slope stability computer programs

Slope stability analysis – Use in designThere are two main ways that slope stability analysis is usedin design.
1) Forward analysisDetermine ground topography, do ground investigation to find soil and rock geometry and engineering properties and ground water regime. Set up slope stability analysis to examine the most likely failure shapes and the minimum factor of safety.
2) Backanalysis – Where the shape and depth of an existing slip is known then this information can be used to check that the soil parameters and ground water regime are reasonable.

“Back” Analysis
Immediately prior to failure we know the the Factor of Safety was = 1 (UNITY)
From the mapping we can determine: Original ground level.Position of failure plane.Type of failure i.e. planar, rotational etc
From the ground investigation we can determine:The level of the strataSoil parametersGround water regime
However there are often areas of the ground investigation where there is still uncertainty. Back analysis can enable us to check the areas of uncertainty.

In conclusionWhy do slopes fail?
Either the:
Driving loads increased by adding weight near head of slip.
Or the:
Resisting loads reduced by either:-
Reduction in weight near toe of slip (by erosion or excavation).
or:
Reduction in shear strength –
rarely by reducing phi or c’
but often by increasing u.

For infinite slope failure where water table is at ground surface and c’=0.F=γbuoy
tan ϕ’/γsat
tan βWhere γsat is the saturated bulk unit weight (for clays = 20kN/m3)
γbuoy
= γsat -
γw = 20 –
10 =10kN/m3
β
=15°
At time of failure F=1Substitute numbers into equation above:
1 = 10 tan ϕ’/20 tan 15 °Rearrange to find ϕ’: ϕ’
= tan-1(20
tan 15 °)10
ϕ’=28 °
In reality there may be a small cohesion and if this were the case then phi at failure would be slightly lower.
