Abstract: The Slope stabilization is an important aspect of civil engineering, geotechnical engineering, and environmental engineering, as it helps to ensure the safety and stability of structures built on or near slopes, as well as protect the natural environment from damage caused by landslides and erosion. Slope stability is a measure of how resistant a natural or man-made slope is to failure due to collapse or sliding.

Slope stabilization refers to any implemented technique that aims to stabilize an unstable or inadequately stable slope. The purpose of slope stabilization techniques is to increase the Factor of Safety of a slope to a level that is considered adequate. The important geotechnical properties affecting stability of a slope are shear strength of material, particle size distribution, density, permeability, moisture content, plasticity and angle of repose.

Keywords: Slope Stabilization, Shear Strength, Permeability, Stabilization Technique.
