Consider how steep a slope can be and remain stable Sand dune Angle of repose for dry sand 15. 07. b Some parts of slope steeper than angle of repose Scoria cone Talus slope Coarse material can have a steeper angle of repose
Factors that control slope stability Amount of water Angle of repose for material Discontinuities: fractures, cleavage and bedding 15. 07. c
Some ways that slopes fail Earthquake activity 15. 08. a 1 Undercut cliff Too steep a slope Undercut slope
Classification of Slope Failures Mechanism of Movement Fall Flow Solid rock Unconsolidated Fast Slow Type of Material Rate of Movement 15. 08. b 1 15. 08. b
