Landslides and Slopes Stabilized using One Row of Piles
Update to an existing Strain Wedge Model technique used for analyzing slopes stabilized with one row of piles. The update will include a displacement-based mechanism that considers multiple modes of failure. Predictive capabilities of the software will be verified by full scale field tests.
