STABL WV
Slope stability analysis for Windows

Proven algorithms.
Complete Windows interface.

STABL WV computes factors of safety for slopes and embankments using the Bishop, Janbu and Spencer methods, with automatic search for the critical slip surface and full support for tiebacks, soil nails, reinforcement and piles.

What's in the program

Everything needed to define a slope, search for the critical slip surface and document the result — with algorithms tested against rigorous limit-analysis and finite-element methods.

Σ

Three analysis methods

Bishop's simplified method for circular surfaces; Janbu's simplified method (with or without correction factor) and Spencer's method for circular, block, irregular and user-defined slip surfaces.

Automatic slip-surface search

Generate thousands of random trial surfaces within your search constraints. The ten most critical are retained, sorted and plotted over the slope.

Reinforcement and inclusions

Tiebacks, soil nails, metallic or geosynthetic reinforcement, and pile rows enter the analysis directly, with their forces accounted for in the factor of safety.

Groundwater and loading

Multiple water tables and pore-pressure patterns, distributed surface loads, and pseudo-static seismic coefficients.

Draw the slopeNew

Sketch the ground surface, layer boundaries, water table, loads and reinforcement on a canvas instead of typing coordinates. Snap to vertices, edit in tables, undo and redo.

%

Monte Carlo analysisNew

Assign probability distributions to soil parameters and obtain the distribution of the factor of safety and the probability of failure, not just a single deterministic number.

Project files with many analyses

Keep several analyses of the same slope — different methods, with and without stabilization — in one project file, and copy an analysis from one method to another.

Legacy compatibility

Opens classic STABL .si and .in input files, so decades of existing work can be reused immediately.

Reports and plots

Scaled plots of the slope, soil profile and critical surfaces, plus complete output listings suitable for inclusion in engineering reports. US customary or SI units.
