Stope Stability and Remediation:
Managing Ground Risk with Practical Engineering Solutions
Our slope stability and remediation services help clients manage ground risk, protect infrastructure, and maintain safe operating environments. We specialise in slope stability analysis using limit equilibrium and finite element analysis, investigation of slopes and installation of monitoring equipment.
Slope performance can directly impact safety, approvals, and long-term asset reliability. WML delivers practical, site-specific solutions that address instability risks while supporting efficient construction and ongoing operations.
Soil and Rock Slopes
We assess the stability of both soil and rock slopes across a range of environments, including mine sites, infrastructure corridors, subdivisions, and industrial developments.
Our services include:
Slope stability assessments and risk evaluation
Cut and fill batter design
Excavation support recommendations
Landslip and erosion risk assessment
Rockfall hazard identification
Using analytical assessment and modelling techniques, we evaluate failure mechanisms and provide clear recommendations to ensure safe and compliant designs aligned with Australian Standards.
Remediation Design
Where instability risks are identified, WML develops targeted remediation strategies to restore stability and protect assets. Our solutions prioritise constructability, long-term performance, and environmental responsibility.
Remediation design may include:
Retaining structures and reinforcement systems
Drainage and groundwater control measures
Batter regrading and stabilisation works
Rockfall protection systems
Rehabilitation and erosion control strategies
Our team works closely with contractors and stakeholders to ensure remediation measures are practical to construct and effective over the life of the asset.

Designed for WA Mining and Development Conditions
Western Australia’s varied geology — from weathered rock formations and expansive clays to steep excavation faces and remote mine environments — requires specialised engineering understanding.
WML combines strong knowledge of WA regulatory requirements, Australian Standards, and industry best practice with real-world construction experience. This ensures slope designs and remediation strategies are not only technically sound but also achievable within operational and environmental constraints.
