Analysis of stability of slopes in deep opencast mines
Slope stability theory is reviewed with particular regard in its application to high and steep slopes of open-cast mines; theory based on stresses along surface of potential failure is proposed which allows account to be taken of external loadings applied to slope, e.g. effects of interference with regional stresses in earth' s crust; it is proposed that limiting slope should be calculated and that design should then be laid back to flatter angle, degree of flattening to be consistent with degree of security demanded by management of mine.
