Solid waste landfills serve as municipal waste containment facilities. Presently landfills are required to accommodate as much volume of waste as possible while isolating the waste from surrounding air soil and ground water. With the intention to provide sufficient space for the increasing waste volumes modified landfill designs have been implemented which incorporate designs with steep side slopes. Although the National Norms and Standards for Disposal of Waste to Landfill provide the minimum requirements and state that alternative design layouts for landfill slopes exceeding 1H:4V may be considered the new implementation could increase the risk of landfill instability (Department of Environmental Affairs 2013a Emery 2014). Research has shown that instability problems may be associated with shear failure (Russell et al. 1998 Kim 2006 Feng et al. 2010 Duffy 2016). In such cases the safety of these containment facilities depends on the shear strength properties of the landfill boundary conditions and construction materials. As a result proper understanding of shear strength parameters is essential in ensuring safe designs.
