Stability of basal reinforced embankment on soft foundation soil considering oblique pull

Ramu, K. / Madhav, Madhira R. / Charavarthi, V.K.

This paper presents stability analysis of a basal reinforced embankment on soft ground considering the oblique force developed in the reinforcement during failure. The factor of safety of the embankment with the oblique tensile resistance in the reinforcement is computed by considering the failure surface as a circular arc. The factor of safety obtained in this study is compared with the conventional theory, i.e., for a basal reinforced embankment, but considering the pull to be axial (horizontal) in the reinforcement. The results indicate the factor of safety for the stability of the embankment is underestimated, if the tensile force in the reinforcement is estimated conventionally.
