hi all,
Can someone shed some light on embankment filling on sloped ground?
What's the steepest allowable natural slope a 2:1(h:v) embankment can be constructed on top assuming no slope stability & bearing problem to the natural slope. In another words, the gradient which machinery can perform compaction to requirement on site. I mean heavy machinery such as roller compacter or sheep foot
thanx
