<![CDATA[A research about study of sandstone slope stability using the Bishop Simplified method in Uu Samarinda has been conducted. This study was conducted to analyze the rebound number values of sandstone slopes, evaluate their stability level, and calculate the safety factor using the Bishop method. The results showed that the rebound number values were 22.34 at point 1, 19.83 at point 2, and 18.07 at point 3. The Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) values at the observation points were 1.90 MPa, 1.62 MPa, and 2.21 MPa, respectively. Geological Strength Index (GSI) evaluation indicated a rating of 80–85, demonstrating intact/massive rock structure, fresh and unweathered rock surfaces, and very good rock quality. Based on the Bishop method analysis, the slope factor of safety in 6.525 with a probability of failure is 0.000%, indicating that the sandstone slope in Ulu Samarinda is highly stable even under external pressures such as heavy rainfall or minor earthquakes. This study provides crucial information on the mechanical characteristics and stability of sandstone slopes in ulu Samarinda, which can serve as a reference for technical planning, geotechnical risk mitigation, and the sustainable development of safe areas.]]>
