Due to the mining rise that our country is experiencing, the mining structures such as the waste rock storage facilities, require large storage capacities to meet the waste rock volumes from the mining operations. In the last years, this led to the construction of waste storage facilities with heights greater than 100 m. Most of these structures are located at high seismic zones, which is a characteristic of the Peruvian seismicity, for this reason, and based on international standards (ICOLD, CDA), dynamic analyses are required to supplement the design conducted by stability analyses by using typical limit equilibrium methods. Even though, currently these analyses are not required by the Ministry of Energy of Mines for its revision and approval, and dynamic analyses are conducted in the current engineering practice for major projects located at highly seismic zones and which failure might cause a significant social and/or environmental risk. Nowadays, there is not documented information available about dynamic analysis conducted in mining structures such as waste rock storage facilities. For this reason, this research describes the numeric modeling strategy used to solve this type of concerns by using finite element method and HS Small constitutive model. First, a description of the theoretical basis including a dynamic analysis is described; subsequently, the geotechnical characterization of materials is presented; then the calibration process and property determination is performed; and finally, the finite element mesh and the seismic records to be used into the analysis is described. Modeling was performed through PLAXIS software, which is widely used in the current geotechnical engineering practice. At the end, this work shows the advantages and disadvantages of the HS Small model in dynamic applications and also provides recommendations for its use and improvement opportunities. In addition, the seismic behavior of the waste rock storage facility, based on its displacement and strain is described, which allowed determining the degree of safety factor of the analyzed facility.
