    The following case study involving a failure in fissured over-consolidated clay slope was reported by Henkel and Skempton in 1954. The failure occurred in 1952 in Jackfield, Shropshire, England. The slope profile is shown in Figure 1. The failure was a translational slide where the average depth to the failure plane was 17 ft. The ground water table was very near or at the surface. The peak strength parameters of the over-consolidated clay are: cohesion, c'= 220 psf and friction...

    A proposed residential development of a single tower is to be built on a sloping site as shown in Figure 1. The site has a (W1m x 25m wide building zone. A level platform has to be created by building a permanent retaining structure outside the building zone but within the (W2m x (W2m wide site boundary. A temporary slope, which may extend outside the site boundary, has to be formed in advance for construction of the retaining structure. ---...
