Name: A house is built on the top of a hill with a 42^∘ slope. Subsequent slumping of material on the slope surface indicates that the slope gradient should be reduced. If the coefficient of friction of soil on soil is 0.55, through what additional angle ϕ (see Fig. 5-33) should the slope surface be regraded?

Question

A house is built on the top of a hill with a $42^{\circ}$ slope. Subsequent slumping of material on the slope surface indicates that the slope gradient should be reduced. If the coefficient of friction of soil on soil is $0.55$, through what additional angle $\phi$ (see Fig. 5-33) should the slope surface be regraded?
