Abstract
Determining the properties of mine waste dump material is very difficult, it is caused by the difference of dimension between the laboratory equipment and field material size distribution. This study aims to determine the material properties from mine waste dump material using back analysis method after failure was occurred. The back analysis method is based on a trial and error concept which focuses on failure geometry and it is conducted by varying the cohesion and friction angle until the safety factor was less than 1.0. The laboratory results showed a 66.2 kPa change as well as a 48.8°friction angle deviation in mine waste dump material properties, while the back analysis indicated 33.7 kPa and 27.4°. It means, there is a reduction in the value. Therefore, the increasing in these properties are expected to allow the redesign of heap stability.
