A Study on the Effect of Alccofine on the Stability of Soil Slopes
Slope stability issues have existed throughout history, due to human interference with the natural slope balance of soil. As manmade slopes are increasing, the estimation of factor of safety is the important factor to stabilize the soil slopes. This research work consists of laboratory and software evaluation of a stabilized red soil. The soil was treated with Alccofine with varying stabilizer dosages. Unconfined compression tests were performed to establish the stabilizer’s optimum dosage. The soil slopes were prepared with the ideal dosage of (4%) for 90, 80, 70 and 60 Degree slopes using cube mould of size 150 mm. The samples were then tested using compression machine corresponding to 7 and 3 days of curing periods. From laboratory studies, it was noticed that stabilization of red soil using Alccofine escalates its strength with increasing curing period. The factor of safety was estimated using Plaxis software and also verified with Taylor’s method. The highest values of factor of safety of 2.77 and 2.59 were obtained respectively with Taylor’s method and Plaxis 2D software corresponding to a slope angle of 70 Degree.
