Abstract

Based on a hundred-meter level high embankment in mountainous areas in China, the embankment stability is investigated by the FLAC3D finite difference numerical simulation, and the effects of fill height, slope grade, geo-fabric reinforcement, and the presence or absence of a wide platform at the base of slope on the stability are discussed. The results indicate that as the fill height increases, the safety factor of the subgrade slope stability gradually decreases. The decrease in slope grade, adding geo-fabric reinforcement and the setup of a wide platform at the base of the embankment all contribute to enhancing the stability of the embankment.
