Abstract
Little insight exists into the stability of reinforced slopes supporting spread footings. Existing research is largely focused on idealized, plane strain analyses that do not account for three-dimensional conditions. These conditions are significant because the geometries of both reinforced slopes and footings are three-dimensional in nature. In this study, the stability of reinforced slopes supporting spread footings is analyzed in three dimensions using a limit analysis approach and presented in a series of design charts. To better understand the impact of three-dimensional conditions, a parametric study is conducted to evaluate effects of various design parameters on required reinforcement strength.
