Existing Site/ground Condition:

It is Understood that the existing soil strata is of poorly graded sand and engineering fill has been deposited maunally over it.
both poorly graded sand and the engineering fill formation can fail in shear thus stability is compromised and requires stability analysis.
As there is not water table, the soil will only fail i n shear behavior as shown in the figures.
