Stabilization of Failing Slopes Using Rammed Aggregate Pier Reinforcing Elements
This paper presents two case histories describing the use of Rammed Aggregate Pier soil reinforcing elements to stabilize slope failures. The analytical methods used in the design solutions are presented along with a description of the construction sequence and post-slide repair, instrumentation, and performance. This paper is of significance because it describes how a simple and cost-effective solution may be effectively implemented to stabilize unstable slopes.
