STABILITY CALCULATIONS<\/h1>\n

There are many ways to calculate stability for landslides, slopes, but also for anthropogenic works such as road embankments, railways and other types.<\/span><\/span> Nowadays, these calculations are done by specialized computer programs that use different algorithms in their calculations.<\/span><\/span> The vast majority of them analyze the balance of forces in a given computational model.<\/span><\/span> FoS (Factor of Safety) is the ratio of the generalized sum of friction and cohesion forces\u00a0 of the material and forces derived from the geotechnical protection of the slope (anchors, gabions, etc.), to the sum of generalized force loads, caused by \u00a0gravity, filtration, static and dynamic loads.<\/p>\n

The solution of this equation most often leads to finding the actual or potential slip surface, and the choice of a suitable computational method to evaluate the stability of the slope depends on its predicted form of deformation. When analyzing stability of rocks or soil\u00a0 slope, all possible elements of the landslide process should be taken into account.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
