Stability analysis of fill slope at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Song no.2's project using SLOPE/W

Cut and fill works around the slopes are common scenes. Hence, slope stability analysis must be carried out in order to assure the slope is safe and prevent the slope failure. In this study, software application approach by GEOSTUDIO 2007 (SLOPE/W) is used for the case study, an under-going secondar...
