Stabilization is required for cut slopes identified to have Factor of Safety values below the design requirement. In this GeoStudio Coffee Corner, we will compare 2D and 3D slope stability analyses of a railway cut with nail reinforcement. The webinar will review how to define reinforcement in 2D and 3D stability analyses, including the use of the new 3D array tool for establishing reinforcement lines at variable spacing, and highlight key differences between the 2D and 3D results.

Key learning points:

  • Using the new array tool to create sets of lines in 3D.
  • Creating reinforcements from line geometry in 3D.
  • Interpreting the results to understand the differences between 2D and 3D.
