SSC SSC JE Civil 2025 Mock Test Series (Paper 1 & Paper 2) Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Stability of Slopes
A canal with depth 7 m and side slopes 1 : 1 has the following properties: Cohesion 10 kN/m2, angle of internal friction 20°, voids ratio 0.6 and specific gravity 2.7. Stability numbers for a slope 1 : 1 with angle of internal frictions 20° and 10.3° are 0.062 and 0.125 respectively. Factor of safety of the slope with respect to cohesion when the canal runs full is:
