Attention is focussed on the use of the computer in connection with "limit equilibrium" approaches to the solution of stability problems, and comment on stress-strain methods of analysis is also made. Consideration is given to the best form of presentation of results particularly with respect to their use during construction in association with instrumented control sections.
