assessment of slope stability and its remedies in palampur, himachal pradesh

The complex geography of the himalayan mountain range, along with the natural circumstances that already exist and the ways in which people have influenced and intervened in the region- makes various regions of the range vulnerable to slope instability. the slope stability of the area that is the subject of this work is evaluated in palampur, which is in the kangra district of himachal pradesh. the primary objective of this work is to ensure that the slope remains stable so that the nearby threesided residential structures and the highway remain protected. after the site visit, the geo-technical studies, which include testing in the form of bore holes and in the laboratory, are carried out. after evaluating the geo-technical technical report, the next step in the process is to begin the analysis of the slope's stability. in order to do an analytical analysis of the slope stability, the area has been subdivided into three portions, and labelled a-a, b-b, and c-c, respectively. using the numerical modelling approaches, the mitigation design parameters for the area and the circular slip failure are computed. these calculations are based on the geo-technical characteristics of the studied area that have been specified. the factor of safety is calculated for both the natural and stable scenarios by the program. because of this, some preventative steps and a few improvements are suggested.
