Abstract

The paper looks at the stability of fill embankments using data from failed embankments constructed from residual soils in Western Sydney. Semi-quantitative, deterministic and probabilistic methods are used to consider the stability of such fill embankments. A simple, infinite slope model was adopted to carry out deterministic and probabilistic analyses. Climate data was used to assess the likelihood of fill saturation and the impacts of climate change on predictions.
