Abstract

Stability analysis of steep rock bedding slope with weak structure planes using strength reduction method was simulated in this paper. The post processing function can display the development condition of the plastic zone, which is the criterion for instability of the slope. Analysis with working conditions of natural circumstance, after excavation, and the slope reinforced by anchor shank after excavation were put forward. Failure modes and safety coefficients of the slope proved that weak plane is the main factor controlling slope failure. Simulation results shown that strength reduction method is appropriate in predict the shape and position of the potential failure surface of steep rock bedding slope.
