Abstract:Geological conditions of slope stability and its influence factors are studied in air shaft site ofWangjialing coal mine.Based on the qualitative evaluation of slope stability by hemispherical projectionmethod,the stability of typical slope sections in the entire site is analyzed under different operating conditions by limiting equilibrium method(Sarma law)and finite element method,with the safety coefficients given.Results show that the outcomes of the two analyses are basically equivalent and the rationality of themethods is proved.The study may also offer reference for the evaluation and management of similar geotechnical slope problems.
