Design and Analysis of Earth Slopes Using Geosynthetics

In the aspect of geotechnical engineering problems, slope stability is a condition of inclined soil, waste heaps to withstand or undergo movement. Slope is an unprotected ground surface that can be necessitated at an angle of horizontal. Slopes are necessitated in the construction of railway embankments and highways, levees, bridges, earth dams, reservoirs and canals etc., and are generally less expensive. Failures of natural and man-made slopes have demise and demolition. Analysis and stability slopes consist of determining and comparing the shear stress developed along the potential rupture surface with the shear strength of the soil. The awareness of the surface drainage is very important factor. Slope stability can be evaluating the ground water, shear strength of the soil. For a secure slope, factor of safety should not be less than 1. In recent times, electronic computers made it feasible to more easily repetitious mechanism and the use of OASYS GE software has simplified the analysis to a great extent. In this present study, OASYS GE Slope software has been to analyze the homogeneous earth slopes for different cohesive strengths, and also we study the improvement of stability of slopes using geomembrane and we also consider the effect of ground water table on stability of slopes.
