Effect of disturbed zone thickness on rock slope stability Ersöz, Timur; Topal, Tamer (2021-04-01) Cut slope surfaces are affected by excavation activities and weathering agents. Disturbances on the surface can penetrate down to a certain depth. Slope stability analyses made on the cut slopes can reveal unsatisfactory r...
Effect of disturbed zone depth on slope stability analysis: a case study from Western Black Sea Region (Turkey) Ersöz, Timur; Topal, Tamer (2019-10-07) Rocks in road cuts are affected by weathering, excavation and tectonic activities. The weak rocks especially disturbed by tectonic activities lose their strength over the years due to excavation and weathering. One of the ...
Weathering and Excavation Effects on the Stability of Various Cut Slopes in Flysch-Like Deposits Ersöz, Timur; Topal, Tamer (2018-12-01) Cut slopes are very sensitive to weathering because of disturbed rock mass and topographical condition by excavation. During and right after an excavation process of a cut slope, weathering and erosion may act on this newl...
Assessment of rock slope stability with the effects of weathering and excavation by comparing deterministic methods and slope stability probability classification (SSPC) Ersöz, Timur; Topal, Tamer (2018-07-01) Cut slopes are prone to fail due to the disturbance on original geometry and strength. In addition, because of these disturbances and stress relief, natural apertures which increase the weathering effects widen in engineer...
Assessment of Slope Stability of Various Cut Slopes with Effects of Weathering by Using Slope Stability Probability Classification (SSPC) Ersöz, Timur; Topal, Tamer (2017-04-28) Rocks containing pore spaces, fractures, joints, bedding planes and faults are prone to weathering due to temperaturedifferences, wetting-drying, chemistry of solutions absorbed, and other physical and chemical agents.Espe...
