USE OF GEOMECHANICALLY INCORRECT RELATIONSHIP FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS OF SLOPE STABILITY ---PROCEEDINGS OF THE FIFTH INTERNATIONAL CONGRWESS, INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ENGINEERING GEOLOGY, 20-25 OCTOBER 1986, BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA. VOLUMES 1, 2 AND 3.

Very often shear stress -normal stress relations obtained for clays with coagulation contacts are extreme in character, i.e. Beyond certain values of normal stress, the values of shearing stress decrease. Similar experimental relations are considered incorrect with respect to coulomb's law but from the point of view of physicochemical mechanics they can be used for solving problems of slope stability. Their use determines the possibility for obtaining a stable "s"-shape profile of the slopes, which is characteristic of the terrain surface of old landslides in similar clays. For the covering abstract of the congress see IRRD 817067.
