Abstract
Abstract The results of the survey and calculation of the stability of retaining walls along highways located near the incline of the slope are presented. The analysis of the results of the numerical solution for modeling the interaction of the slope and the retaining wall shows that the most dangerous areas are the zones of development of maximum horizontal deformations at the retaining walls due to shear deformations. The zone, where shear deformations are spread, covers a large volume of slope soils. Collapsing soils, sinking from their own weight on the slope during water saturation, worsen the initial value of the adhesion, the angle of internal friction, the modulus of deformation, changing the stress-strain state. The trajectories of the movement of particles of collapsing soil when the stress-strain state of the slope on the retaining wall changes show that the movement of soil particles occurs at the boundary of collapsing and non-collapsing loams. Numerical calculations carried out under the PLAXIS program showed that in the water-saturated state, the slope is a landslide. The retaining wall on the incline of the slope, made of collapsing soils, is not stable and the sliding of the soil occurs only in the layers of collapsing soils of the slope.
