Abstract: The fragile Himalayan terrain of Uttarakhand state in India often face challenging and tough situation due to landslides, particularly in monsoon season. To cope up with these kinds of hazards, use of effective vegetation as Bio- Engineering is considered a good alternative as this management of ecosystem can provide benefits like stabilizing slope, medicinal resources and other environmental benefits. The present study analysed the mechanical effect of plant root system on slope stability. Root cohesion with surcharge effects were analysed and Factors of Safety (FOS) were evaluated for varied slope angles of two different types of soil collected from the sites of landslide area i.e. Kakri Ghat and Salri of Uttarakhand State in India. The extensive laboratory studies for varied plant densities showed the improvements in shear parameter and were used to calculate the Factors of Safety (FOS) from slope stability analysis by using two methods i.e. Swedish and Bishop’s method for varied slope angles. Study shows that the variation between FOS and tree densities of Cedrus Deodar tree clearly indicate that there is an optimum tree density that will maximize the FOS for a particular soil type. The value of optimum tree density of Cedrus Deodar trees were obtained and recommended for the different slope condition (45° to 75°) and for soil types collected from the landslide sites Kakri Ghat and Salri Site from Almora and Nainital District respectively from Uttarakhand State, India. The present work gives the methodology to ascertain the effect of root system vegetation in slope stability for particular soil types with certain limitation. It also quantitatively finds optimum value for plantation of Cedrus Deodar tree for particular slope types and prevents the slope failure caused by deficient vegetation as well as failure because of excess vegetation.
