The effect of different types of ACFs on the slope reliability has not been qualitatively evaluated. A procedure for simulating correlated non-Gaussian random fields based on the Cholesky decomposition technique with midpoint discretization is proposed. The typical ranges of autocorrelation length of shear strength parameters of soils are summarized. An example of reliability analysis of frictional/cohesive soil slope is then presented to investigate the effect of five common types of ACFs for
