Abstract

This paper presents a numerical study that performs the stability of slopes on bedrock reinforced with single pile row at different locations. The slope is formed of top sliding soil layer that underlies over rock. The numerical analysis has been implemented by employing the three dimensional analysis using FLAC3D. The results indicate that as the pile location is moved towards the slope crest the displacement increases.In the single row of pile application, the factor of safety reached its maximum value when the pile located at the top middle of the slope. Considering the failure mode the results has conclude three failure modes; above, in front, and through the pile according to the location of the pile. Failure mode is also affected by socketed length of pile in bedrock layer. It is believed that the findings of this study contribute to the engineers performing slope stability analysis in practice.
