The Road

Tawaeli - Toboli is one of the road that often undergo landslide. Most of these roads are in a mountainous area with high steep slopes and poor soil conditions. The road conditions worsened, especially in rainy season resulting the citizen do not know anywhere that is prone to landslides such as in Km 16 to 17. The purpose of this study was to analyze slope stability using bioengineering methods, determine the shear strength of soil without plant roots and soil with plant roots and to determine the potential for landslides that will occur. Bioengineering is used to increase the strength of the soil, and stabilize slopes and reduce erosion on slopes. The slope stability calculation using the Bishop slice method. The calculating of safety factor analyzed using the Slope / W application and manually. Soil samples were taken from 3 (three) points and the soil strength parameters,  soil cohesion and friction angle, were obtained through laboratory testing. Tests were carried out using rootless and rooted soil samples. In addition, direct field observations were made to obtain slope angles and slope heights. The results showed that the parameters of soil shear strength, cohesion and friction angle increased with the presence of plant roots. The results of the slope stability analysis show that the conditions of the slope are stable at slope 1 (Km 16) and slope 3 (Km 17) with a safety factor greater than 1.5. While slope 2 (Km 16 +300) has the potential for landslides as a safety factor of less than 1.5. The use of bioengineering increases the safety factor to be greater than 1.5. The calculation of the value of the safety factor using the Slope / W program and the Bishop manual is not much different, but the calculation time with the Slope / W program is faster

Slope instability occurs in landfills owing to increased internal temperatures. However, strength characteristic tests for solid waste (SW) and landfill slope stability (SS) calculations that consider temperature variations are scarce in the literature. In this study, we conducted triaxial tests on SW under a range of temperature conditions and proposed the circular slide method (CSM) for calculating SS in consideration of temperature effects. SW cohesion decreased linearly with increasing temperature, whereas the internal friction angle remained essentially unchanged. Our results showed that higher temperatures reduced the SW shear strength, changing the most dangerous sliding arc away from the slope toe. The landfill slope safety factor decreased by more than 20% with an increase of the maximum temperature from 20°C to 50°C. Reduction of the leachate level (LL) led to a decrease in the landfill high-temperature zone and the safety factor increased according to LL and temperature distribution. If cooling pipes are used to control the SW temperature, we recommend arranging the cooling pipes on the landfill liner. The proposed CSM can be used to analyse landfill SS.

The slope stability is generally analyzed by a 2D method, ignoring the spatial effect (SE), which no longer meets the evaluation accuracy requirement. This problem is particularly prominent for the embankment built on the double V-shaped gully (E-DVSG), which is a typical but unique topography in the mountainous area. Moreover, the technical requirements for engineers will increase sharply if a 3D slope stability calculation method is adopted. To tackle this issue, pragmatically, a dimension-reduced slope stability analysis method (DR-SSAM) considering the SE of the E-DVSG was proposed and verified by a case study. Specifically, the DR-SSAM obtained the 3D safety factor of the E-DVSG by using the spatial effect curves and the safety factor from the 2D model. The results showed that the method was rational and efficient for engineering applications. Besides, the SE generation mechanism and condition along with its influences resulted from the major factor were addressed thoroughly.

Deterioration Effect

Abstract Extreme ice-snow melting in winter affects the infiltration process of snow water on the slope surface significantly, and plays an important role in the deformation stability of landslide. The fluctuation trend of slope stability under ice-snow melting is the same as that of soil volume water content. The deterioration effect of mechanical parameters will directly affect the deformation stability of bank slope. Based on this, the ice-snow melting cycle model test of slope soil was designed and carried out. The results are showed.(1) We were established an ice-snow melting model based on physical process. In the process of ice-snow melting, the soil cohesion and internal friction Angle have obvious deterioration effect .The deterioration of cohesion is obviously larger than that of internal friction Angle. In the early part of the ice-snow melting cycle, the deterioration of shear strength parameters is very obvious. Among them, the deterioration of shear strength parameters caused by the first four ice-snow melting cycles accounted for about 70% of the total deterioration. After the G2/T2 ice-snow melting cycle, the degree of phase deterioration gradually decreases. The deterioration trend of shear parameters of soil samples gradually tends to be gentle. (2) In the ice-snow melting cycle, the inside of the soil samples have micro-cracks, fissures repeatedly opened and closed, gradually developed and converged. The result is that the soil samples change from dense state to loose state where internal cracks develop. The internal damage of soil samples is the fundamental reason for the gradual deterioration of shear strength.（3）We are keep to the relative independence principle of creep model and unsaturated seepage equation. We are studied and improved the parameter solving method of creep model. The modified model is reasonable and effective. The creep trend and main characteristics of the unsaturated soil can be described well. Shear strength deterioration effect and slope reliability analysis under extreme ice-snow melting conditions .It has important reference significance to the protection of extreme snow and ice disaster on the bank slope.

The paper describes the failure during construction of a proposed 70 ft. high railway embankment fill. The fill was built of a uniform clay of medium plasticity which was used at an average moisture content of 3 per cent greater than had been provided for in the design. The fill failed under its own weight when it reached a height of 55 feet.In order to assist in the design of stabilizing works three test holes were drilled in the fill and soil samples recovered. Properties of field compacted and laboratory compacted soil samples are compared. The age of both types of samples is shown to have a significant effect on the test results.Both total and effective stress analyses of the embankment at failure have been performed using the laboratory values of soil strength. The total stress analysis gives a safety factor of 1.0 at failure whereas the effective stress analysis gives a safety factor of 1.2. The hazards of choosing the correct value of laboratory shear strength for the total stress analysis are discussed.

Abstract Mechanically biologically treated (MBT) waste has significant characteristics such as high stability and low moisture content, which can reduce water, soil, and gas pollution in subsequent treatments. This pre-treatment method is environmentally friendly and sustainable, and has become a popular research topic in the field of environmental geotechnical engineering. Using a direct shear test apparatus and five shearing rates (0.25, 1, 5, 10, and 20 mm/min), the shear strength characteristics of MBT waste at the Hangzhou Tianziling (HT) Landfill were studied. The results indicate: (1). With the increase in horizontal shear displacement, the shear stress of MBT waste gradually increases without a peak stress phenomenon, which is a displacement hardening curve; (2). The shear strength increased with an increase in the shearing displacement rate, and the sensitivity coefficient was 0.64–2.66. (3). The shear strength, shearing rate, and normal stress correlation model are established, and the model has a high degree of fit with the overall experimental data; (4). Cohesion (c), internal friction angle (φ), and the logarithm of the shearing rate are linear; (5). The range of c of MBT waste is 22.32–39.51 kPa, and φ is 64.24–.68.52°. Meanwhile, the test data are compared with the test data in the literature, and the shear characteristics of HT-MBT waste are discussed. The research results of this study can provide a reference for the stability calculation of MBT landfills.

By analyzing the characteristics of expansive soil from Pingdingshan, China, the shear strength parameters at different water contents, dry densities, and dry-wet cycles of expansive soil are obtained. It is found that, at higher soil-water content, the internal friction angle is 0° and the shallow layer of expansive soil slope will collapse and destroy; this has nothing to do with the height of the slope and the size of the slope. The parameters of soil influenced by atmosphere are the ones which have gone through dry-wet cycles, and the parameters of soil without atmospheric influence are the same as those of natural soil. In the analysis of slope stability, the shear strength parameters of soil can be determined by using the finite element method, and the stability coefficient of the expansive soil slope can be calculated.
