Video 4: Centre of Gravity - Mining Geotech Hazard Awareness

Описание: In this video, we explore how the principles of centre of gravity, weight distribution, and support conditions influence the stability of rock slopes.
We use easy-to-understand examples, starting with human balance, and then show how the same ideas apply to real-world rock formations.

We also highlight how small changes to supporting material can shift the balance and lead to slope instability or rock failure.

In the next video, we’ll apply these concepts to real examples of slope failures and introduce basic design ideas that help prevent instability.
