This course is aimed for students with a geotechnical, mining or civil engineering background and interested to have certified professional training in the Limit Equilibrium Method, with a focus on Slope Stability in grounds or rockmasses (where its behavior is adequate for LEM modelling). The goal of this course is to give the students a brief understanding of the Limit Equilibrium Method and to provide the necessary knowledge using one of the most advanced LEM software from Rocscience \u2013 Slide2D and 3D, which can then be applied directly in consulting companies, scientific research institutes\/ universities and any other design & build mining\/ civil engineering contractors.<\/p>\n
With this objective in mind, the course is completely structured into software applications and practical subjects that include Rocscience\u2019s professional software currently used on the global market.<\/p>\n
The main pre-requisite for this course would be undergraduate and\/ or post-graduate courses in Rock Mechanics, Soil Mechanics and\/ or Computational Geomechanics. An introductory Slope Stability Analysis using Limit Equilibrium Method course would be highly recommended, but this is not mandatory, as a summary of the methodology will be presented within the course.<\/p>\n
The objectives of this course are to consolidate the foundations of the Limit Equilibrium Method, by thinking mainly about its application in geotechnical, mining and civil engineering slope stability analysis, although the basic ideas can be generalized without any difficulty. Furthermore, it should be noted that the subject starts with the most basic concepts, initially treated intuitively in order to allow them to be easily assimilated by the students without any knowledge in slope stability analysis.<\/p>\n
This course provides 2D and 3D soil & rock mechanics stability solutions for slopes, dams, embankments, levees, using any combination of constitutive models for materials and various types of support: rockbolts\/ soil nails, anchorages\/ grouted tiebacks, piles\/ micro piles, geosynthetics, and any other user defined support. Analysis are carried out in drained and undrained conditions, taking into account groundwater influence on slope stability. Basic knowledge on statistics and probabilistic design are presented, as well as standard design codes (EC7).<\/p>\n
