The stability of a slope is to be analyzed by the method of slices. On a particular trial curved surface through the soil mass, the shearing and normal components of each slice's weight are tabluated as shown below. The lenght of the trial curved surface is 25 feet. The cohesion,cis 173 #/ft2and the angle of friction, f = 19 degrees. Determine the Factor of Safety,FSsfor the values given?
