Abstract:
In model soil slope studies as related to Geotechnical Engineering. the engineers arc
interested in the failure surface and the maximum shear strength developed there upon
failure. Monitoring the displacements and strains developed in the soil body during
deformation. as a result of either surcharge loading or changes in the pore water pressure.
holds a significant importance in Geotechnical Engineering. for example in investigations
related to foundation engineering.
