Based on geologic condition of one tunnel surrounding rock mass, systematic numerical tests had been carried out to study the stability of surrounding rock mass with different distributions of weak intercalated rock by the FEM software ABAQUS and strength reduction finite element method. Some quantificational results about the stability of surrounding rock mass were summarized. And the safety factor and latent slip surface were worked out. The stability of surrounding rock mass was judged by strength reduction finite element method. According to the analysis above, it’s known that the discrepancy of two rules is small; the safety factor is the lowest when weak intercalated rock in vault, and when at bottom, it’s higher than that of in vault. The conclusion can be used to guide the procedure of construction and ensure the safety.

By means of finite element method software simulation analysis, using strength reduction finite element method analyse factor of safety of embankments. Nowadays most finite element program is analyzed in the perfect elasto-plastic with the Mohr-Coulomb not equiangular hexagon circumcircle Drucker-Prager yield criterion, it have margin of error with not equiangular hexagon in π-plane, so we use Mohr-Coulomb equivalent area circle D-P yield criterion instead of it. Calculate conversion coefficient of two safety factor under different yield criterion. Using safety factor through finite element software by strength reduction multiply by conversion coefficient, get new safety factor. Through the example of high embankment of old road widened in Shanghai-Chengdu expressway Hejiaping cable section K2+ 710~890, validation of this method calculated the accuracy of the safety factor, the results show that the new factor of safety closer to the true value.

Abstract. PT X is a company engaged in the cement factory industry in West Java that uses an open-pit mining system with limestone mining. X is planning the location of waste dump placement using the in-pit dump method, so a safe and efficient final slope design is needed. For optimal stockpiling activities, slope geometry planning on the waste material dump needs to be carried out slope stability analysis. Slope stability is influenced by slope height, slope angle, rock mass strength, rock type, and groundwater level. The purpose of this research is to find out whether or not a slope is stably displayed in the Safety Factor (FK) value. Analysis process is carried out using the Finite Element Method and the Boundary Equilibrium Method. The analysis was carried out on bedrock and pile material. Analysis of bedrock using Finite Element Method in the Goa area in Sections A - B and C - D obtained SRF values ​​of 4.6 and 16 with a total displacement of 13,771 m and 6 m. In the area of ​​Mount Bindis Section E - F and G - H obtained SRF values ​​of 2.5 and 4.75 with a total displacement of 11.8 m and 3 m. Analysis of the embankment material in the Goa In areas with Sections A - B and C - D FK values ​​obtained = 2.11 and 1.56 and for Section C - D FK 2.62 and 1.94. In the Mount Bindis Area with sections E - F and G - H FK values ​​= 1.59 and for Section G - H FK values ​​= 2.31 and 1.57. The disposal obtained the amount of volume that will be accommodated in each area of ​​11,175,191.19 LCM and 74,749,919.45 LCM. Abstrak. PT X adalah perusahaan yang bergerak di industri pabrik semen di Jawa Barat yang menggunakan sistem penambangan terbuka dengan penambangan batu kapur. X sedang merencanakan lokasi penempatan pembuangan limbah dengan menggunakan metode pembuangan di dalam pit, sehingga diperlukan desain lereng akhir yang aman dan efisien. Untuk kegiatan penimbunan yang optimal, perencanaan geometri lereng pada tempat pembuangan bahan limbah perlu dilakukan analisis stabilitas lereng. Stabilitas lereng dipengaruhi oleh ketinggian lereng, sudut lereng, kekuatan massa batuan, jenis batuan, dan tingkat air tanah. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui apakah kemiringan secara stabil ditampilkan dalam nilai Safety Factor (FK). Proses analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan Metode Elemen Hingga dan Metode Kesetaraan Batas. Analisis dilakukan pada material batuan dasar dan tiang pancang. Analisis batuan dasar menggunakan Metode Elemen Hingga di daerah Goa di Bagian A - B dan C - D memperoleh nilai SRF 4,6 dan 16 dengan total perpindahan 13,771 m dan 6 m. Di daerah Gunung Bindis Bagian E - F dan G - H diperoleh nilai SRF 2,5 dan 4,75 dengan total perpindahan 11,8 m dan 3 m. Analisis bahan timbunan di Goa Di daerah dengan Bagian A - B dan C - D nilai FK diperoleh = 2.11 dan 1.56 dan untuk Bagian C - D FK 2.62 dan 1.94. Di Wilayah Gunung Bindis dengan bagian E - F dan G - H nilai FK = 1,59 dan untuk Bagian G - H nilai FK = 2,31 dan 1,57. Pembuangan memperoleh jumlah volume yang akan ditampung di masing-masing area 11.175.191 LCM dan 74.749.919,45 LCM.

ABSTRAKAnalisis menggunakan program PLAXIS 2D dengan tinggi timbunan dan kemiringan tanah dasar bervariasi tanpa dan dengan perkuatan rock fill sehingga diperoleh kebutuhan rock fill agar faktor keamanan memenuhi syarat. Hasil analisis dengan kemiringan tanah dasar 1V:8H diperoleh kebutuhan rock fill timbunan lempung dengan tinggi 5m, 10m, 15m dan 20m sebesar 0%; 24,7%; 45,5% dan 59,1% sedangkan timbunan pasir sebesar 14,5%; 43,2%; 62,4% dan 71,4%. Pada kemiringan tanah dasar 1V:6H diperoleh kebutuhan rock fill masing-masing ketinggian timbunan lempung sebesar 5%; 45,8%; 59,3% dan 66.6%, sedangkan timbunan pasir sebesar 33,1%; 62,3%; 71,9% dan 73,2%. Pada kemiringan tanah dasar 1V:4H diperoleh kebutuhan rock fill masing-masing ketinggian timbunan lempung sebesar 48,9%; 66,7%; 75,6% dan 81,3%; sedangkan timbunan pasir sebesar 60,1%; 72,6%; 80,5% dan 84%. Variasi jenis mesh menghasilkan faktor keamanan yang tidak signifikan antar jenis mesh dikarenakan lapisan timbunan yang dimodelkan relatif rapat. Analisis geometri tanah dasar bertangga dengan lurus tidak menunjukkan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap faktor keamanan.Kata kunci: stabilitas lereng, timbunan, tanah dasar, rock fill, metode elemen hingga, PLAXIS 2D ABSTRACTAnalysis using PLAXIS 2D program with varying heights and slopes of subgrade without and with rock fill reinforcement in order to obtain the need for rock fill so that the safety factor meets the requirements. The results of the analysis with a subgrade slope of 1V: 8H obtained the need for rock fill clay pile with a height of 5m, 10m, 15m and 20m of 0%; 24.7%; 45.5% and 59.1% while the sand pile was 14.5%; 43.2%; 62.4% and 71.4%. At a subgrade slope of 1V: 6H, the required rock fill height for each clay pile is 5%; 45.8%; 59.3% and 66.6%, while the sand pile was 33.1%; 62.3%; 71.9% and 73.2%. At 1V: 4H subgrade slope, the required rock fill height for each clay pile height is 48.9%; 66.7%; 75.6% and 81.3%; while the sand pile was 60.1%; 72.6%; 80.5% and 84%. Variation of mesh types resulted in insignificant safety factor between mesh types because the modeled embankment layer was relatively tight. The geometry analysis of the straight stepped subgrade did not show a significant effect on the safety factor.Keywords: slope stability, embankment, subgrade, rock fill, Finite Element method, PLAXIS 2D

This paper uses the modified strength reduction finite element method to propose stability charts for pseudostatic stability analysis of three-dimensional (3D) homogeneous soil slopes subjected to seismic excitation. These charts are developed in a wide range of input parameters for purely cohesive slopes and cohesive-frictional slopes, respectively. Effect of the horizontal seismic load is approximately considered using the quasistatic approach. The stability charts allow to determine the factor of safety without any iterative procedure and identify the corresponding critical slope failure mechanism. A slope example is employed to illustrate the application and reliability of these stability charts.
