Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2021 Decreasing slope angle and slope height increases the slope factor of safety and can change the shape of likely slope failure. The increase in the factor of safety is at different rates, which can depend on soil type and slope geometry. Understanding the

Critical Success Factors of Safety Program Implementation in Construction Projects in Iraq
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021 The construction sector is recognized as one of the most dangerous industries in the world. The situation is worsening in Iraq, as a result of a lack of attention to safety in the building industry and the poor implementation of safety programs.

Geotechnical design with apparent seismic safety factors well-bellow 1 [PDF]
, 2014 The paper demonstrates that whereas often in seismic geotechnical design it is not realistically feasible to design with ample factor of safety against failure as is done in static design, an "engineering" apparent seismic factor of safety less than 1 ...
