With reference to the sketch, if no tension crack is present, = 29 ,
Question:
With reference to the sketch, if no tension crack is present, α = 29◦, γ = 156pcf (24.7kN/m3), joint persistence = 0.87, no crest relieving bench and no toe berm are being considered, determine
(a) The maximum slope height H when β = 50◦ and the water table is at the crest, and
(b) When the slope is completely depressurized. Rock and joint properties are given in Table 2.6.
