Dam B1 was approximately 85 m high and 700 long along the crown when it suddenly failed in 25th of January, after 41 years operations deposition tailings at Paraopeba mining complex (Côrrego de Feijão), Minas Gerais, Brazil. More than 250 people died vast economic, social environmental damages resulted from collapse. Given need to geotechnically characterise within dam for a credible computational model failure, an extensive sampling laboratory testing campaign took place. The geotechnical...
