Flattening of slope results in reduce in weight which make that stable 2 . Soil stabilization 3 . Providing lateral supports by piles or retaining walls 4 . Grouting or cement injections into special places 5 . Consolidation by surcharging or electro osmosis increases the stability of slope . </P>

List and describe each of the factors that control slope stability
