Abstract

Quantification of variable input parameters (groundwater pressure, active friction angle and seismic acceleration) is often a difficult task in slope stability analysis for Himalayan conditions. The objectives of the study were to estimate the value of these variable parameters and study their sensitivity in rock slope stability analyses for Himalayan conditions.
A road cut at the Desander back slope of the Kali Gandaki hydropower project of Nepal is considered as a case history as it is representative of a common stability problem in Himalayan conditions. It is concluded that the probabilistic approach is the most realistic way of determining input parameters for slope stability analysis.
