Assessment of Rock Slope Stability Along Minas Road, Tons Valley, Uttarakhand Himalaya INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 9, ISSUE 03, MARCH 2020 ISSN 2277-8616 Assessment Of Rock Slope Stability Along Minas Road, Tons Valley, Uttarakhand Himalaya Gambhir singh chauhan, h.c. Nainwal Abstract: Slope stability analysis along the Minas road was carried out at 7 locations. Limestone, sandstone and slates are the main rock types. Geotechnical Data for Rock Mass Rating (RMR) were taken from each location for the rock mass classification. The rock samples were also collected for the lab analysis. The stereographic projections of rock joints were plotted for Kinematic analysis and different slope failures (planar and wedge) were identified. Geological cross section of each rock slope was prepared to show the orientation of different sets of joints with respect to the slope face. Finally the Factor of safety (FOS) of each rock slopes were determined.It was found that among the 7 rock slopes 3 falls in good and 4 in fair RMR class. The Kinematic analysis shows that 2 rock slope form planar failure and 5 wedge failures. The Factor of safety analysis depicts that 3 rock slopes have a FOS value above 1 and form stable slopes while 4 rock slopes shows a FOS value near and below 1 which represent partially stable and unstable slopes.

Slope stability study along the an area is carried out to estimate the stability condition of road section is helpful to know the causes of slope failures the slope. For this purpose various numerical methods are and their mitigation measures. In present work stability used to calculate the FOS of a slope. In this analysis a analysis of unstable Rock slopes located along the minas slope is categorised into stable, partially stable and road was carried out (Fig 1). unstable classes.

This method is highly applied in rock slope stability analysis. Orientation of discontinuities, slope angle and angle internal friction (Փ) are used in kinematic analysis. FOS is calculated by dividing the resisting forces from driving forces of a rock slope. The FOS analysis of plane and wedge failures of different rock slope was performed according to Hoeks and Bray [26]. The value of FOS above 1 indicates stable slopes and value below 1 depicts unstable slope condition [27]. The value of cohesion (C) and internal friction (Փ) for each rock type were taken according to Hoek and Brey [26]. Internal friction angle of 25￮ was taken for slate and 35￮ for sandstone and limestone while Cohesion of 25 MPa was taken for slate and 30 MPa for sandstone and limestone. The equation 1 and 2 were used for FOS analysis of planar and wedge failures. FOS analysis of planar failure is determined for dry condition. F = C.

  • Chapter-1 Introduction
    CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION 1.0 Background Lakhwar Project is a part of multipurpose scheme primarily a peaking power station on river Yamuna in the district of Dehradun in Uttarakhand. The scheme envisages construction of 204m high concrete dam on river Yamuna near Lohari village. The Multipurpose scheme also envisages construction of Vyasi HEP (Hathiari power station) downstream of Lakhwar HEP. The scheme also includes construction of a barrage at Katapathar about 3 Km downstream of Hathiari powerhouse station (Vyasi HEP) on river Yamuna. The inflow and stored water in Lakhwar and Vyasi reservoir after generation of power at Lakhwar underground power house and Hathiari power house will be balanced at Katapathar barrage for downstream use. As a result of regulated flow from the Katapathar barrage, it is also assessed that about 75 MU of additional energy would be generated from the existing downstream projects of Uttarakhand state such as Dhakrani, Dhalipur, Kulhal and Khara. The live storage of Lakhwar reservoir is estimated to be 330.66 MCum. The project was originally approved by planning commission with estimated cost of Rs. 140.97 crores in Jan, 1976 as multipurpose scheme. Environmental clearance was accorded to the project by MOE&F in Feb, 1987. The initial work of Lakhwar Vyasi Project was started in 1979 and three major contracts for construction of main civil works of the project were signed in July, 1987. Some construction works such as abutment stripping for Lakhwar dam, construction of 2 nos. diversion tunnels, part excavation of underground powerhouse, part excavation of tail race tunnel etc at Lakhwar site and abutment stripping for Vyasi dam, excavation of head race tunnel, diversion channel, part excavation of 1-1 surge shaft, pressure shaft, surface powerhouse, etc at Vyasi/ Hathiari site have been completed.

  • Report on Women and Water
    SUMMARY Water has become the most commercial product of the 21st century. This may sound bizarre, but true. In fact, what water is to the 21st century, oil was to the 20th century. The stress on the multiple water resources is a result of a multitude of factors. On the one hand, the rapidly rising population and changing lifestyles have increased the need for fresh water. On the other hand, intense competitions among users-agriculture, industry and domestic sector is pushing the ground water table deeper. To get a bucket of drinking water is a struggle for most women in the country. The virtually dry and dead water resources have lead to acute water scarcity, affecting the socio- economic condition of the society. The drought conditions have pushed villagers to move to cities in search of jobs. Whereas women and girls are trudging still further. This time lost in fetching water can very well translate into financial gains, leading to a better life for the family. If opportunity costs were taken into account, it would be clear that in most rural areas, households are paying far more for water supply than the often-normal rates charged in urban areas. Also if this cost of fetching water which is almost equivalent to 150 million women day each year, is covered into a loss for the national exchequer it translates into a whopping 10 billion rupees per year The government has accorded the highest priority to rural drinking water for ensuring universal access as a part of policy framework to achieve the goal of reaching the unreached.
