Study on Slope Failure by Limit Equilibrium Method And Finite Element Method of Highway Embankment A Case Study No.1270, Kong Loi – Mae Haetai Route sta.26+200 – sta.26+450
Keywords:
Slope failure, Limit equilibrium method, Finite Element MethodAbstract
Roads are an infrastructure of economic importance. In most of the north of Thailand it will be an area that has a high mountain nature slope failure that is often encountered frequently. This research was to investigate the causes of a failure by considering the factor of safety ratio in highway 1270, Kong Loi - Mae HaeTai section, Chiang Mai Province which is an agricultural product transportation route. Slope stability analysis by means of the limit equilibrium method and the finite element method. The results of the study showed that the limit equilibrium method was approximately 18% higher than the finite element method. The major factors affecting slope failure are the drainage problem of the road embankment and erosion.
