Design of rock slopes in Soviet hydropower construction practice
Conclusions At present Gidroproekt has gained considerable experience in calculating the stability and designing rock slopes. In all, the stability of more than 100 slopes at 20 Soviet hydropower facilities has been analyzed during the period since 1970.Cases of failure of the masses related to errors in design have not been observed at a single one of the designed slopes, which permits concluding the soundness of the method used by the authors for calculating the stability of rock slopes and analyzing the initial information.The conditions of conducting and the parameters of drilling and blasting operations have a noticeable effect on slope stability and their angles, which indicates the need for the thorough development and rigorous observance of the plans of the drilling and blasting operations.At a number of hydropower facilities detailed calculations of stability made it possible to eliminate costly engineering measures, as a result of which about 1 million rubles were saved.
