Abstract: Based on researching the principle and application of Sarma method, the traditional Sarma method has been improved considering the reservoir region slopes’ characteristic after storing water. Floatage is smartly added in calculation. Finally, the improved method has been applied to evaluating the stability of a creeping rocky slope at the left bank of Longtan Hydropower Station in China.

Key words: Sarma, factor of safety, underwater block, slopes, floatage
