www.wsdot.wa.govused as input in the analysis. For short-term stability analysis, undrained shear strength parameters should be obtained. For long-term stability analysis, drained shear strength parameters should be obtained. For assessing the stability of landslides, residual shear strength parameters will be needed, since the soil has in such has typically ...

The shear strength parameters (c and ϕ) can now be determined by plotting Mohr’s circle at failure, as shown in figure and drawing a common tangent to the Mohr’s circles. This is the ...
