Toppling on Rock Slopes: An Overview
Several modes of rock slope failure have been fairly well defined and classified. Of particular interest are plane, wedge, and circular failure modes, each of which has a well-defined geometry and failure mechanism. As a result, a variety of equilibrium methods of analyses have been developed to calculate a factor of safety for a slope that fits one of these three categories. However, for other recognized failure modes, calculating a factor of safety using traditional analysis methods is generally impossible. These failure modes include rock falls, raveling, and toppling. This paper is concerned with a recently recognized (circa 1971) failure mode, rock toppling, which is not as well understood as the more common failure modes.
