Study on Engineering Mechanical Properties of Mayanpo Slope at Xiangjiaba Hydropower Station

Through the field test of Mayanpo slope at Xiangjiaba Hydropower Station, external deformation, deep deformation, groundwater level and stability of the slope with weak interlayer are analyzed in this paper. The results show that: ① displacement deformation increases with time and decreases with increasing depth. Changes of displacement can be divided into three stages: deformation rapidly increases in the early, and slowly increases in the medium, and becomes gradually stable in the later. Changing rate of displacement decreases with time, and the rate can also be divided into three stages, basically consistent with the displacement changing stage; ② a certain thickness of weak interlayer and evident dislocation exists in slope strata. Dislocation rate first increases and then decreases until basically stable, and local fluctuation is mainly affected by rainfall and dynamic equilibrium adjustment of the slope internal deformation; ③based on the penalty function contact of pile soil and the surface of rock mass, the three-dimensional numerical model of coupling of seepage and strain has been established, and through analyzing and comparing with field test data, it is verified that the model is feasible in the study on slope deformation; ④ through stability analysis of Mayanpo slope by strength reduction FEM, stability coefficient is 1.72.
