SLOPES IN STIFF-FISSURED CLAYS AND SHALES (1968)
The objective of this investigation was to review existing information concerning slope failures in stiff, fissured clays and shales, and to study the influence of lateral stresses on the stress conditions around excavated slopes. These studies, which were performed using the finite element method of analysis, show that the initial horizontal pressures have a considerable influence on the magnitudes of shear stresses following construction.
