Bishop slope stability using excel spreadsheet 1

[pietoos]

Can anyone give me an indication were to find a code/example for compiling an Excel spreadsheet to conduct a Bishop's slope stability analysis ?

Pls refer to Low's paper in 1998, Vol, 124, No4,
Slope reliability analysis using generalized methods of slices

ASCE Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, Vol. 124, No. 4, April 1998, pp. 350-362. The paper is titled, "Slope Stability Analysis Using Generalized Method of Slices" by B.K. Low, R.B. Gilbert, and S.G. (Stephen) Wright. Steve Wright did his PhD dissertation at UC Berkeley on slope stability.



Please see FAQ731-376 for tips on how to make the best use of Eng-Tips Fora.

The following additional two papers should also can help to perform stability analysis by spreadsheets:

Low, B. K. (1996). ¡°Practical probabilistic approach using spreadsheet¡±. Proceedings of Uncertainty in Geologic Environment: from Theory to Practice, ASCE Geotechnical Special Publication, Vol. 2, No. 58, pp. 1284-1302.

Low, B. K., and Tang, W. H. (1997a). ¡°Reliability analysis of reinforced embankments on soft ground¡±. Canadian Geotechnical Journal, Vol. 34, No. 5, pp.672-685.
