In a sustainable development of civil engineering, its numerous aspects should be taken into account. Environmental compatibility between the structures and structural materials, as a part of the sustainability, is limited neither to selected structural materials nor to selected type of structures. It is and it has to be associated with all structural materials, type of structures, structural technologies as well as their theoretical and practical aspects. Slopes necessarily occupy large areas and they are the parts of roads cuttings and embankments and a part of the bridge abutments. In this article, the considerations are limited to geoengineering structures, particularly to stabilising slope structures; the theory and principles of project and structure realization are not considered. Examples of the realizations described refer to recent engineering practice. The environmentally friendly soil nailing stabilization of road slope on inclined ground, deep excavation in urbanized area, mine waste slope, and the possibility of protecting location of historical monuments show the environmental compatibility of geoengineering structures.
