(a) Depth factor

(b) Slope depth

(c) Depth failure

(d) Base failure

The question was asked by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.

I want to ask this question from Stability Analysis of Finite Slopes in section Stability of Slopes of Geotechnical Engineering II

Answer 1

The correct answer is (a) Depth factor

Best explanation: The ratio of the total depth (H + D) to depth H is called the depth factor Df.
