Bedding Rock Slope

In the construction of high dams, many high rock slope failures occur due to flood discharge atomized rain. Based on the steel frame lifting technique and strength reduction materials, a comprehensive method is proposed in this paper to study the stability of high bedding rock slope subjected to atomized rain. The safety factor expression of the comprehensive method and the evaluation method for deformation instability were established according to the similarity theory of geomechanical model, failure criterion, and mutation theory. Strength reduction materials were developed to simulate the strength reduction of structural planes caused by rainfall infiltration. A typical test was carried out on the high bedding rock slope in the Baihetan Hydropower Station. The results showed that the failure modes of the bedding rock slope were of two types: sliding–fracturing and fracturing–sliding. The first slip block at the exposed place of the structural plane was sliding–fracturing. Other succeeding slip blocks were mainly of the fracturing–sliding type due to the blocking effect of the first slip block. The failure sequence of the slip blocks along the structural planes was graded into multiple levels. The slip blocks along the upper structural planes were formed first. Concrete plugs had effective reinforcement to improve the shear resistance of the structural planes and inhibit rock dislocation. Finite element method (FEM) simulation was also performed to simulate the whole process of slope failure. The FEM simulation results agreed well with the test results. This research provides an improved understanding of the physical behavior and the failure modes of high bedding rock slopes subjected to atomized rain.

Using the measured experimental field data of two faults of a rock slope engineering, based on the large number of measured data analysis results of similar projects and rock style to determine the internal friction angle of the fault.the method of how to choose the good date was given. Back analysis method and number fitting method was used to determine the cohesion of fault; anti-slide pile is the lateral force column, the relation of the four failure modes of anti-slide pile was considered. The statistical parameters of resistance of anti-slide pile was calculated by structure mechnics. The norm recommended coefficient transmission method was used to determine function of random variables of slope sliding. The results show that using back analysis method and structure mechnics method to modify the parameter can decrease the uncertainty and improve the reliability of engineering design .

Bedding Rock Slope

The weak formulation of the Lagrangian control equations considering the contact constraint conditions and the FEM discrete equations have been derived. The non-linear and non-smooth problems of the mechanical response are solved perfectly by adopting the suggestion method for which tolerance large tangential slipping of the contact surface. One excavation bedding rock slope of the Hu-Rong-Xi expressway is analyzed applying the method mentioned above. The distribution rules of the displacement, stress, strain, contact state, contact friction force and sliding distance under the status of critical sliding are obtained. The analysis results indicate that the failure of the bedding slope is a progressive course. The interlayer stagger firstly, then the deformation evaluates to creep bedding slip and the bottom rock occurs buckling slip at last. The destruction model changes form the bedding slide to rock buckling slip.

Stability Of Slopes

A class of rock slope failures exists in which the mode of failure requires the existence or creation of internal shears to accommodate large internal slide mass distortion. These internal displacements are required to allow motion along the basal slip surface. This paper demonstrates that the more traditional limit equilibrium methods of analysis are often conservative when used to assess the stability of slopes with this failure mechanism. As a result, back analysis may overestimate the available shear resistance. A method of analysis capable of handling this failure mechanism was proposed by S. K. Sarma. A case history from the Revelstoke Hydroelectric Project, British Columbia, is used to demonstrate that these internal shears were required for movement to occur and that passive anchors inside the sliding rock mass can be used to improve the overall slope stability. No attempt is made to evaluate the actual factor of safety of the three-dimensional slide mass. Key words: rock slope, foliation shear, stability analysis, dilation, internal shears, passive anchors.

Bedding Rock Slope

Bedding and counter-tilt rock slope with intercalated weak layers are common geological bodies in west China, the dynamic response research will guide the anti-seismic reinforcement of bedding and counter-tilt rock slope with intercalated weak layer effectively. Two test models of bedding rock slope with intercalated weak layer and counter-tilt rock slope with intercalated weak layer, which are in the same size, have been designed and developed. A large scale shaking table test has been performed to analyze the dynamic response difference of bedding and counter-tilt rock slope with intercalated weak layer. The study results show that the acceleration amplification coefficient inside the bedding slope is smaller than that inside the counter-tilt rock slope; at the middle and upper parts of the slope body (relative height > 0.4), the acceleration amplification coefficient at bedding rock slope surface is larger than that of counter-tilt rock slope. At the lower part of the slope (relative height le 0.4), the acceleration amplification coefficient at bedding rock slope surface is close to that of counter-tilt rock slope. The slope surface displacement of both bedding and counter-tilt rock slopes increases with increasing input seismic wave amplitude. The slope surface displacement of the bedding rock is larger than that of counter-tilt rock slope. The seismic stability of counter-tilt rock slope is stronger than bedding rock slope. The dynamic failure form of bedding rock slope mainly includes vertical tension crack at back edge, bedding sliding along intercalated weak layer and rock collapse at slope crest; whereas the dynamic failure form of counter-tilt slope mainly includes intersection of horizontal and vertical cracks on slope surface, extrusion of intercalated weak layer and shattering of slope crest.
