    Slope Stabilization Techniques

    Hi, I am brainstorming for ideas to stabilize an overthrust developing on a dam abutment slope. It is a cut slope (8H:1V) in a clay/shale material, naturally given to slumping. The slope was constructed in the early '60s and is vegetated with local weeds and grasses. Slope indicators in the...

    Halcrow Buckets

    I am looking for some information on Halcrow Buckets. I monitoring groundwater levels in an unstable slope (slope is undergoing slow downslope creep). I would like to get maximum water level readings but the standpipes are currently read manually once a month in the summer/fall and once a week...

    Subsurface Drainage in Low-permeability Material

    I am looking for information re: subsurface drainage of low-permeability materials. An overthrust has developed on a cut slope (7H:1V) of glacial overburden over clay/shale. I am investigating subsurface drainage for slope stabilization. Can anyone suggest any good...
