CGE3263 Slope Stability and Earth Retaining Structures

Dear Students, 

You are welcome to this module entitled "Slope Stability and Earth Retaining Structures". The module aimed to provide the students with theories and concepts needed to analyze retaining structures and slopes encountered in engineering projects. Topics for this course include earth pressure theories; design and behavior of rigid, flexible, braced, tied-back, slurry, and reinforced soil structures; stability of excavation, cut, and natural slopes; methods of slope stability analysis; effects of water forces; shear strength selection for analysis; and stability and seepage in embankment dams.
