Simple Surface Wedge Analysis in Rock Slope for Phone Devices
wSlope is designed to perform a quick and simple analysis on your phone device. wSlope is a simple to use program that uses block theory (Goodman and Shi, 1985) method to estimate the stability of surface wedges in rock slope. wSlope determines Factor of Safety (FOS) for translational slip of a single rock wedge formed in a rock slope by two intersecting joints, slope face, upper ground face as well as tenstion crack (optional).

wSlope is very simple and easy to use.
Water pressure can be applied on joint planes. Water pressure forces can be represented by arrows displayed at the center of each wedge failure plane, directed normal to the plane.
Seismic Force can be applied to the wedge by selecting the Seismic check box.
The report button, allows the user to save the current model’s input and output information into two-page PDF file. The generated report file can be sent out via email.

Rock bolts and shotcrete can be applied to increase the wedge safety factor. The support parameters dialog allows user to easily add support and define the support properties for the model.
The brief summary of analysis results and input data will be displayed in the Report Page.
Both Metric and Imperial units are available.
