Sensibility Analysis on the Shearing Strength Parameters of Sliding Surface

Abstract:

Taking Majiagou landslide which lies on the left side of the Three Gorges Reservoir as example, the relation between the shear strength c, values and the design parameters through the Janbu methods and sliding force transfer method is analyzed. After comprehensive analysis and comparison of the computing results, it is suggests that influence of the  value on the factor of safety and the residual sliding force is much apparent than that of c value.  value is the most critical factor to ensure the safety and invest of the slide controlling engineering. Therefore, it is significant to choose a reasonable  value in the stability analysis and the controlling design of landslides.
