Rock slope stability analysis of a limestone quarry in a case study of a National Cement Factory in Eastern Ethiopia.

Rock slope failures pose significant challenges in geotechnical engineering due to the intricate nature of rock masses, discontinuities, and various destabilizing factors during and after excavation. In mining industries, such as national cement factories, multi-benched excavation systems are commonly used for quarrying. However, cut slopes are often designed with steep angles to maximize economic benefits, inadvertently neglecting critical slope stability issues.
