The open pit mine is excavation soil from the Earth's surface, leading to presence of cut steep slopes with stability-concerned manners. Mae Moh open pit mine has the main component of claystone with ambiguous properties under stress condition changes from mine operations. Therefore, the strength of the claystone must be studied to be used for the slope stability analysis. Shear strength parameters for slope stability analysis were derived from the Triaxial Compression tests. Claystone is a type of sedimentary rock. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the equipment of the triaxial compression strength test to fit with intrinsic soft rock characteristics of the Mae Moh Claystone. Determination of parameters was based on Mohr Coulomb model, because it is the basis for slope stability analysis and can be resulted from the triaxial compression test. In addition, many computer-based programs for slope stability analysis also were relied onthe Mohr Coulomb model, including PLAXIS used in this study. Before the analysis, the model were validated by the function of “Simulation of Lab Test” in PLAXIS. Comparison on triaxial compression test results between the Mohr-Coulomb Model from PLAXIS and triaxial compression tests were made. This article reported the strength characteristics of Mae Moh claystone.

PT Belayan Internasional Coal is an open-pit system mining company, one of its geotechnical activities is the construction of the slopes. Slope stability analysis used the Bishop Simplified method to obtain the value of the dynamic safety factor (≥ 1,1). Currently, the value of the Safety Factor (FK) is an indicator in determining whether the slope is stable or not. The parameters used in the slope stability analysis are the physical and mechanical properties of the rock, namely weight (ɣ), cohesion value (c), and internal shear angle (∅). From the results of dynamic overall slope calculations, the recommended overall slope is constructed with an individual slope angle of 55°, a bench width of 5 meters, a height of 10 meters, and the number of individual slopes of 8 slopes. This design will produce dimensions of the overall slope with 41° slope angle, 80 meters high, and has a dynamic safety factor value of 1,102 with the water-saturated condition. Thus, the slopes are in stable condition.

As the complexity and the tall of open pit slope, two-dimensional slope stability analysis methods have been unable to meet the needs of the accuracy of stability analysis. Therefore, for the complex situation of Pingzhuang open pit slope, use with three-dimensional rigid body limit equilibrium method to analysisstability of slope.slope3D system, which consists of pre-treatment, limit equilibrium analysis solver and post-processing, the first processing core is to construct three-dimensional geological model of the slope, post-processing mainly results analysis and visualization graphics. The system combined organically the slope engineering geological information three-dimensional visualization and the analysis of stability, which make us to determine the landslide model, reveal the mechanism of landslide more accurately. Make an important contribution for ensuring safety in open pit production, a good foundation for slope stability analysis of other open pit.

This paper presents a case study of a static load induced liquefaction in a simple roadway widening project constructed in north eastern part of Ohio in 2008. The widening required an embankment fill, which moved nearly 4 feet vertically and 1 foot laterally after two days of installation. The main objective of the work is to demonstrate how a simple Constitutive model, in this case Nor Sand model, can represent the static liquefaction in loose sand layers under specific conditions. A set of parameters is assumed based on the soil properties and an Excel Spreadsheet is used for simulations of triaxial compression of sand. It was considered that the situation which led to the failure, and the situation after the solution adopted. Moreover, slope stability analysis is provided for validation of the original results using a commercial software. It was found that the model can represent through stress strain curves and stress paths the behavior of the soil layer which led to the embankment fill movement. As the original work considered only slope stability analysis to explain this phenomenon, the present study shows a different approach for the case study, and this is the main contribution of this research.
