A Preliminary Assessment of Rock Slope Stability in Tropical Climates: A Case Study at Lafarge Quarry, Perak, Malaysia
The stability analysis of rock slopes is a complex task for the geotechnical engineers due to the complex nature of the rock mass in a tropical climate that often has discontinuities in several forms, and consequently, in several types of slope failures. In this work, a rock mass classification scheme is followed in a tropical environment using the Rock Mass Rating (RMR) and Geological St...
متن کاملSystem reliability approach to rock slope stability
A systematic quantitative methodology for the reliability analysis of stability of rock slopes is presented. A sliding mass resting on an inclined plane and composed of two blocks separated by a vertical tension crack is considered, and a disjoint cut-set system formulation is proposed, with each cut-set corresponding to a different failure mode of the slope. Methods for the evaluation of the s...
متن کاملRock Slope Stability Analysis Using Discrete Element Method
Rock slope stability depends very much on the strength features of the rock and the geometrical and strength characteristics of the discontinuities (e.g., roughness, wall strength and persistence). Since a rock mass is not a continuum, its behavior is dominated by such discontinuities as faults, joints and bedding planes. Also, Rock slope instability is a major hazard for human activities and o...
متن کاملThe structure of spider communities in limestone quarry environments
In Britain, upland spider communities can be found west of the Tees–Exe line between 300–1300 m where the physical conditions are often harsh due to an extremely variable climate, steep unstable slopes and thin soils (Ratcliffe, 1977). These communities often contain species which are common at lower altitudes and are characterized by the dominance of the Linyphiidae (Downie et al., 1995). Spid...
متن کاملThe Effect of Discontinuity Persistence on Rock Slope Stability
l f Discominuity persistence has a major effect on rock mass resistance (strength) but, as direct mapping ofdiscominuities imemal to a rock mass is not possible, persistence is a difficult parameter to measure. As a result, the conservative approach of assuming full persistence is often taken. /n this paper a method is developed for relating rock mass stability and hence persistence to the geom...
