Abstract
To conserve the landscape in the construction of new arterial roads it is becoming more and more necessary to employ deep cuts with a long service life and high reliability using steep artificial slopes for stabilization. Such slope stabilization can be built with relatively low expenditure, if the excavated material is used as fill material and the fill material is strengthened by geotextile reinforcement. High standards are required for the safety and durability of such permanent slopes. Besides the fact of relatively low costs for geotextile reinforced retaining walls (compared to the expenses for conventional retaining walls), the total construction expenditure can be high (long and deep cuts). The above mentioned requirements are arguments for the need of a consistent, verified design concept for geotextile reinforced slopes. To the best of our knowledge, such a concept does yet not exist.
