Cost–Benefit Analysis Methodology for Slope Stabilization Based on Probabilistic Stability Analyses (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Robson, E., Milledge, D., Utili, S., & Bründl, M. (2024, November). Cost–Benefit Analysis Methodology for Slope Stabilization Based on Probabilistic Stability Analyses. Presented at ICTG 2024, Sydney, Australia

It is best practice to evaluate the cost-efficiency of different road cut slope stabilization measures, prior to designing new cut slopes or stabilizing existing ones. This can be done by conducting a cost analysis. Most cost analysis methodologies r...

Cost-benefit methodology for road slope stabilisation (2024)
Journal Article
Robson, E. B., Milledge, D., Utili, S., & Bründl, M. (2024). Cost-benefit methodology for road slope stabilisation. Transportation Geotechnics, 48, Article 101282. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trgeo.2024.101282

Cost-benefit analyses are conducted to evaluate the cost efficiency of road slope stabilisation measures to aid road planning, design, maintenance, and repair. Most cost analyses are based on a statistical framework that requires a database of slope... Read More about Cost-benefit methodology for road slope stabilisation.

A Field Study on the Stability of Road Cut Slopes in Nepal (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Robson, E., Pradhan, S., & Toll, D. (2023, March). A Field Study on the Stability of Road Cut Slopes in Nepal. Presented at Geo-Resilience 2023, Cardiff University

The density of Nepal’s road network has more than tripled in the last three decades. This growth has been rapid, extensive and in places haphazard, occurring on both the local and strategic road networks, and has resulted in the widespread failure of...
