Comparative Study of Slope Stability

An issue becoming more and more important in geotechnical engineering is represented by the manner in which the resources are managed in case of some construction works aimed at stabilizing the slope, as to ensure both strength and structural stability, even the sustainability for the whole ensemble. This paper presents a stability calculation with imposed surfaces of a slope, made of local ground, which serves as a basis for an access road to an ecological landfill situated in Galda de Jos Village, Alba County -Romania. Because it is a landfill located on a total area of 22 hectares, a very important factor is represented by the storage capacity, for this purpose a small road reservation was created by the geometrical configuration of the studied section. Following the results obtained, to take into account the sustainability of the solutions a technical-economical analysis was performed of those solutions which take into consideration the aspects of strength and structural stability, but also ensuring the sustainability through efficient systems for the visible part of the structure.
