Analytical method of calculating slope stability
Conclusion Methods of calculating slope stability in which the equilibrium conditions are not fulfilled can be used only for preliminary calculations if there are no considerable horizontal loads. In this case, it is recommended to use Terzaghi's method, introducing our proposed correction factor to the frictional forces on the failure surface. In critical calculations it is necessary to use methods in which the equilibrium conditions are fulfilled. They give practically the same results. The proposed analytical method makes it possible to calculate stability without dividing the failure mass into vertical elements (“columns”). It seems to us the most simple and accessible of the rigorous methods.
