They are parameters of primary engineering interest, providing a description of extent of damage normal to and along the slope, respectively. The eroded depth is defined as the maximum difference between undamaged and damaged profiles measured normal to the slope and is normalized as nSO The eroded depth is useful because it gives an indication of progress toward failure, particularly if failure is defined by exposure of the underlayer. The sum of eroded depth and cover depth is approximately equal to the initial cover layer thickness fâ f, = (£ + O Dâ,, () 84
