ABSTRACT: The global static and seismic stability of the first phase of the largest Malaysian Sanitary Landfill in Bukit Tagar is investigated and the sensitivity of the safety factor to the waste geotechnical parameters is demonstrated. It is found that with satisfactory drainage conditions, the landfill is stable under the range of possible values of the waste's geotechnical parameters. The landfill is not stable under a hypothetical failed drainage and extreme rainfall and proper drainage can assure satisfactory performance during earthquakes.

RÉSUMÉ: La stabilité globale statiques et sismiques de la première phase de la plus grande d'enfouissement sanitaire de Malaisie à Bukit Tagar est étudiée et la sensibilité du coefficient de sécurité pour les déchets des paramètres géotechniques est démontrée. Il est constaté que, avec un bon drainage, la mise en décharge est stable dans la gamme des valeurs possibles des paramètres géotechniques des déchets. La mise en décharge n'est pas stable dans un drainage hypothétique échoué et les précipitations extrêmes et le drainage peuvent assurer une performance satisfaisante au cours de tremblements de terre. 1 INTRODUCTION
