The impact of abrasion and erosion on the slopes of retaining structures and banks can lead to negative consequences, such as washouts and destruction. To prevent harmful consequences, it is important to correctly select anti-abrasion and anti-erosion materials and the design of protection. The factors and conditions affecting the stability of slopes of retaining structures and supports are analyzed, and the main factors affecting the stability of bank and slope protection in the conditions of Belarus are identified.
The results of a comprehensive assessment of the operating efficiency of various types of slope fastenings of retaining structures in reservoirs in Belarus are presented. Original constructive solutions for slope protection are proposed by means of scale modeling. General requirements for slope protection of reservoirs in Belarus are formulated.
