This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Depth at Mobilized Cohesion in Stability Number - (Measured in Meter) - Depth at Mobilized Cohesion in Stability Number is soil layer thickness where effective cohesion is reached, impacting slope stability.
Cohesion of Soil - (Measured in Kilopascal) - Cohesion of Soil is the ability of like particles within soil to hold onto each other. It is the shear strength or force that binds together like particles in the structure of a soil.
Stability Number - Stability Number is a parameter used to assess the stability of slopes, particularly in soil mechanics and geotechnical analyses.
Unit Weight of Soil - (Measured in Kilonewton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Soil mass is the ratio of the total weight of soil to the total volume of soil.
Factor of Safety with respect to Cohesion - Factor of Safety with respect to Cohesion is the ratio of material's shear strength to applied shear stress, ensuring stability against sliding.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Cohesion of Soil: 2.511 Kilopascal --> 2.511 Kilopascal No Conversion Required
