Hi All,
I would like to have your thoughts about what would be a minimum factor of safety for a natural slope above a national railway.
We are thinking about 1.3 instead of 1.5.
The railway belong to Canadian National Railway, but I could not find any reference from CN Rail mentioning the FOS.
it's going to be a development at the top of the slope with some storm ponds which is lined (no houses)
Thanks for your contribution,
