• SLOPE STABILITY ANALYSIS <br />ACCESS ROAD FILL <br />MINE N0. 3 <br />BEAR COAL COMPANY <br />An estimated factor of safety for the fill slope of the access road at <br />the Bear Coal Company Mine No. 3 near Somerset, Colorado was made to <br />confirm the stability of the road and to satisfy sections of the <br />Regulations for Coal Mining of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation <br />Board. For calculation purposes, the following assumptions were made: <br />• The material forming the fill consists of minus six (6) inch <br />material compacted in continuous thin uniform horizontal lifts <br />• The shear strength of the material is estimated ~to have a <br />cohesion (c) of 210 to 360 lb/f t2 and a friction angle (0) of <br />16 to 23 degrees <br />• <br />• Failure is assumed to occur on a circular failure surface <br />which passes through the toe of the fill <br />• Field observations verify that no groundwater is present in <br />the area of the fill and that a "fully drained slope" <br />condition exists <br />• foundation conditions consisted <br />competent sandstone material. <br />utilized by heavy equipment and <br />equipment haulage. No evident <br />weakness or groundwater were <br />material <br />of a roadbed excavated in <br />The roadbed was previously <br />highway trucks for coal and <br />of fracturing, planes of <br />evident in the foundation <br />The factor of safety of the slope is defined as: <br /> <br />F = Shear strength available to resist sliding <br />Shear stress mobilized along failure surface <br />
