Stereographic method is a general and basic method to analyse sliding failure potential of rock slope. Region of failure analysis using stereographic method extend to curved slope from straight slope in this paper, Curved slope is defined as the multi-face slope with free surface more than two face and has different characteristics from straight single face slope. Individual daylight envelopes of free surfaces are combined into total daylight envelope of multi-face slope. So, sliding envelope of multi-face slope is the daylight envelope except friction cone. Specially, If only single joint set is developed in the slope, single plane sliding(or plane failure) is impossible in the single-face straight slope, but possible in the multi-face slope. In the multi-face slope with only one joint set, single plane sliding occurs when orientation of sliding plane is between two side slope orientation in the sliding envelope.

The stereographic projection method accesses the stability of slope roughly, so it is difficult to apply its result in the technical designing of rock slopes. To solve this difficulty, using the limit analysis method, we quantified the stereographic projection with the safety level graded in the daylight envelope, which represents the failure possible area in the net.

Recently stereographic projection method has widely been adopted in Korea as a simple but effective way of anlalysing the rock slope stability at the preliminary stage of site investigation. In practice, however, not a few cases have been noted where the method. even with the aid of computer programme, was unproperly applied due to lack of experience in the process of collecting geological data, sorting them out and assessing the potential instability of rock block thereform. This paper will briefly describe basic principles of stereographic projection method and present several instances to discuss its merits and limitations when it is applied to the geological conditions of Korea.

Rock slope had been slope failure due to geological and physical things over time. In this paper, it discusses rock slope stability analysis which was concerned about additional slope failure located near the Andong-si. Initially, achieved basic geological investigation and field test about rock slope, examine the stability of rock slope by doing limit equilibrium method and stereographic projection about 5 slopes.

The aim of this study was to analyze the slope stability relating to the failure of cut slopes and the characteristics of stress-strain relations obtained by limit equilibrium method, finite element method, and stereographic projection method for the reinforced cut slopes. The following conclusions were made : 1.To use stereographic projection method led to little possibility to take the toppling and wedge failure while to use the other methods led to the failure. It was recommended to reduce the slope inclination from 1:1 to 1: 1.5~1 :1.8 and adopt coir mesh method to protect the slope surface. position with the horizontal displacement after final excavation moved to the excavation base. The maximum shear strain values concentrated at the excavation base indicated the possibility to induce the local failure. 3. It was recommended that the slope inclination for blast rock with the slope height larger than l0m was 1: 0.5, 1:1, and 1: 1~1 :1.5 for hard rocks, soft and ordinary rocks, and ripping and soils, respectively. 4. Berm width criteria for blast rock with the slope height larger than l0m were recommended as follow : 2~3m per 20m slope height for hard rocks, 1 ~2m per l0m slope height for soft and ordinary rocks, 1 ~ l.5m per 5m slope height for ripping and soils.

Our country has a tendency to build many structures by cutting mountainous areas due to geographical features. Among these construction done in our country, road construction take the first spot in rank. As the construction is done, fractured inclining plane is created inevitability because of the natural properties of mountainous areas. The stability of the fractured inclining planes and slope formed in the opening, which are developed at the time of construction, need to be evaluated. Also, reinforcement plans for these matters are necessary. This paper is to go through an examination on the fractured inclining surface that is developed at the time of construction, especially the composite inclining plane that consists of soil and rocks. Furthermore, evaluating the stability by performing an analysis on stereographic projection and limit equilibrium, based on the examination results. using the stability evaluations, applications were explored for reinforcement methods of construction that fits the geological characters of this inclining surface.

In this paper, the molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed with single-crystal copper blocks under simple shear and simple tension to investigate the effect of size and crystal orientation. There are many variances to give influences such as deformation path, temperature, specimen size and crystal orientation. Among them, the crystal orientation has a primary influence on the volume averaged stress. The numerical results show that the volume averaged shear stress decreases as the specimen size increases and as the crystal orientation changes from single to octal. Furthermore, the Schmid factor and yield stress for crystal orientation are evaluated by using the MD simulation on the standard triangle of stereographic projection.

In this study, a 3D laser scanner is applied to evaluate of the stability of rock slope and to establish a adequate counter-method. From 3D scanning results, three dimensional digital data of rock slope is acquired, and then it is investigated for the engineering properties of discontinuities in rock mass. On the base of the result, we carry out the analysis of slope stability using the methods of the stereographic projection. In particular, the use of a 3D laser scanner is powerful about the slope on which person is difficult to approach because we can obtain the informations of discontinuities from the 3D digital data.

The study area. Boeun-eup Boeun-kun, belongs to Ogchon metamorphic belt which is highly metamorphosed and consisted of complex geologic formations. Even though the geological structures and formations are complex and metamorphosed, the geological investigation and consideration are not enough and consequently the plane failure is occurred in the rock slope which was under construction on 1 : 0.5 gradient. This area is assessed as unstable and additional failure is possible by the discontinuity with same direction of failure surface. Therefore, the authors evaluate the slope stability using various analysis methods such as SMR, stereographic projection method, and the limit equilibrium analysis. In order to analyze stress redistribution and nonlinear displacement behavior caused by stress release, the authors conduct numerical analysis with UDEC and then the behavior of rock mass is analyzed after reinforcements are applied.
