Considering the ordinary method of slices (OMS) and critical circular slip surface for the slope in the figure below, 1) subdivide the slide mass into appropriate number of vertical slices; 2) compute the resisting forces (in kips/ft) and show the directions along the slip surface (show calculations for one example slice and tabulate the remaining slices; 3) compute the factor of safety of this slide mass. Crest of slope at Elevation 30 ft and toe of slope at Elevation 10 ft. Show all work. (60, 40) (94.6, 30) (80, 30) Elev 22 c'= 400 psf = 26 deg Ym = 116 pcf (50, 10) (40.1, 10) c'= 100 psf 4' = 33 deg Ym = 126 pcf
