N2  - This paper aims at making an analysis of the stability of a road fill embankment which relates to a green landfill in the immediate vicinity of the Alba County. Stability was analyzed with the Geostru Slope software and the sliding surfaces were calculated considering the Limit Equilibrium Methods (LEM). The characteristics of the foundation ground of the adjacent earth layers were introduced according to the results of the geotechnical drilling. The stability of the slope was modelled in seven proposed scenarios (different inclinations, with and without berm). The results highlight the advantages and disadvantages related to every scenario, and from the viewpoint of the stability factors as well.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
