A Critical Failure Surface Searching Method, Using A Random

Technique For Generating Circular Surfaces, Has Been Specified.

25 Trial Surfaces Have Been Generated.

5 Surfaces Initiate From Each Of 5 Points Equally Spaced

Along The Ground Surface Between X = 30.00 m
and X = 45.00 m

Each Surface Terminates Between X = 60.00 m

and X = 68.00 m

Unless Further Limitations Were Imposed, The Minimum Elevation

At Which A Surface Extends Is Y = 0.00 m

1.00 m Line Segments Define Each Trial Failure Surface.

Restrictions Have Been Imposed Upon The Angle Of Initiation.

The Angle Has Been Restricted Between The Angles Of -45.0
And 0.0 deg.

Following Are Displayed The Ten Most Critical Of The Trial

Failure Surfaces Examined. They Are Ordered - Most Critical
First.
