For the tests the writers used a series of slabs 14cm
thick, 6m long ~ 1.5, 1.75~ and 2m wide wi%~ differ-
ent %~Vpes of r e i m f ~ e ~ : i. With heavier reinforca-
~ n t at the lower face; 2. With symmetrical disposition
of the reinforcement at the upper and lower faces; 3.
With the reinforcement placed in one layer at the middle
of the slab. Electric strain gauges were used for measur-
ing the linear strains to an accuracy of IXO.00001 and
deflectometers having an accuracy of 0.Olmm. The teats
revealed %hat the r e i ~ f o r c ~ at the ~pper face of
slabs is insufficient. Symmetrically reinforced slabs ex-
hibited an adequate strem6~h under the applied loads.
The bendlr~ m~ments were found using finite difference
expressions,

CIV .ENGI~.JUNE, 1974, P26- 27 •
The new code of practice for the structural use of concr-
ete (CP-110) is based on the principles of limit state
design. The design is based on ultimate loads and stren-
gths rather than working loads as in the pest. Limit
state design means that the designer is intended to
check on all aspects of the design which might cause the
structure to become unfit for use. The principal limit
states are: I. The ultimate state, is.collapse; 2. The
service states, as local damnge and deflection.

Bored piles for slide control have been used in
the southern coast of Crimea since 1968. Before that time
they were used only in road construction. During %he
period 1968-1972 the So~olc~proek~ Inst. d e s i g ~ stab-
ilizing elemem~s made of bored piles for 17 road s~retches
in active lamdslide ranging in %2Lickness from 10-20 m.
The helical drill rigs could be used in the mountain
zones of Crimea only for initial driving. At places where
rock inclusions occurred, rope-blow rigs were used for
drillimg holes. Aloes with this stabilization work, the
safety factor of the slope was determined.

Stability of dumps uni~cut at the base.4F,2R.
SOVIET MS N. SC1.79, N~, JULY-A~G. 1973, P457-459.
The sequence overburden rocks in the worked out area in
the Chereulkhovo coalfield can be divided into two gro-
ups : I) Rocks piled in a pre-d~np durirg working: 2 )
The overburden rocks which are laid on the upper part of
the dump. The possibility of unlercuttir~ a dump to a ~
particular height is determined by %he seco--4ary c~hes-
ion ( as result of ccmpsction) and the a ~ l e of intermal
friction of the rocks of the first group. The calcul-
ations of dump stability with a safety factor N=I.I-
1.15 show that with constant angle of slope of the dumps
and ar~le of slope of the umd~cut part of the dump, the
maximt1~ attainable height of the undercut part depends
on the mechanical properties of the rock and t ~ total
height of the dump.
