The following example will introduce some of the features included in Slope Stability and will set up a model using the limit equilibrium method of slices with the Grid and Tangent search method for circular slip surfaces. The purpose of this model is to determine the factor of safety of a simple model. The model dimensions and material properties are in the next section.

This example consists of a simple slope with two layers and a water table. The problem is analyzed using the GLE (Fredlund) method. The purpose of this example is to illustrate the calculation of the factor of safety for a simple slope example.
