Abstract
Homogeneous earth embankments are man-made or artificial structure whose construction is an important part of highway, railway and flood structure projects. Soil exhibits different properties in different places. Reinforcing the soil with Geogrid can be effectively used for improving the durability and stability of embankment, this ensures uniform settlement of embankment and result in cost effective solution. This paper aims to develop two-dimensional stability charts and correlation for slope failure (slip circle) in homogeneous soil embankment. Sensitivity analysis is also done to determine the contribution of different soil parameter. The chart and correlation developed for stability analysis can be a convenient tool for preliminary estimation of factor of safety (FOS) and possibility of failure.
