MacSlope

MacSlope is an app designed for Mac OSX 10.8+ to calculate the factor of safety of earth slopes, using commonly used methods of limit equilibrium slope stability analysis.
MacSlope is a fully-featured application, with the capability to:

  • Model tension cracks.
  • Model partially and fully submerged slopes.
  • Model complex pore pressure conditions for each region, through the use of piezometric surfaces, and ru or B-bar coefficients.
  • Model complex geometries with an unlimited number of regions and materials.
  • Model vertical and inclined surcharge loads.
  • Model seismic loading, input as a horizontal acceleration for pseudo-static analysis.
  • Calculate the factor of safety using the Ordinary, Bishop's Simplified, Janbu's Simplified, Spencer's and General Limit Equilibrium methods.
  • Analyze circular, compound, and user-defined slip shapes.
  • Search for the minimum factor safety using a search grid, specified surface, or auto search.
  • Plot contours of factor of safety for search grids, or display a "heat map" of colors.
  • Animate the slip surfaces and slices being analyzed as calculations happen.
  • Inspect the calculated slice forces and create custom plots of force and stress over the slip segment.
  • Import DXF files for quick creation of slope geometry.
  • Create reports (HTML/PDF) using analysis results and custom plot content.
