Slope Stability Assessment with Rock Mass Classification Along NH-44 of Jammu and Kashmir Himalaya
Himalayan mountain range, covers 12% landmass of India, which is highly prone to landslides due to its complex geological setting, fragile lithology, steep slopes, and extreme precipitation. The vulnerability to landslides is further exacerbated by human activities. Assessing the stability of Himalayan slopes is crucial for sustainable development, environmental conservation, and the safety of human populations in the region. Himalayan road networks are strategic and critical to national border security. This study focuses on evaluating the slope stability along National Highway 44 in the Ramban district of Jammu and Kashmir. The authors have systematically applied multiple rock mass classification methods to analyze the conditions of stability of nine most critical slopes. Various rock mass classification methods, includes rock mass rating (RMR), slope mass rating (SMR), continuous slope mass rating (CoSMR), along with the kinematic analysis, were performed. These evaluations are of utmost importance in ensuring the safety and dependability of the roadways amid the challenging topography and geological complexities prevalent in the region.
