The scientific work provides solutions to the problem of stability of soil slopes of earth structures and methods of combating erosion of dam slopes of reservoirs. When solving the problem of stability of soil slopes, it becomes necessary to calculate stability based on a pre-established flat sliding surface (a dam with a thin clay shield or, for example, if there is a layer of weak soil at the base of the structure). There are engineering techniques for this case. Sloping-profile earthworks are the most common in hydraulic engineering and are widely used to create pressure fronts and protect reservoir shores from erosion by waves. In modern technical literature, earthworks, depending on the slopes and structures of their slopes, are divided into structures of a flattened and normal profile. These can be blind pressure earthen dams, water-sealing protective dams, coastal protection structures of a sloping profile.
