Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All of the above factors can contribute to an increased likelihood of slope failure. Adding mass high on a slope can increase the weight and instability of the slope, steepening the slope can make it more prone to collapse, and removing support from low on a slope can cause it to become less stable and more likely to fail.
