MECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF PILE COLUMN PIERS IN BEDDING ROCK SLOPES: A MIDAS GTS APPROACH

Abstract

The rapid advancement of basic traffic engineering in China has led to the construction of numerous bridges in mountainous regions, with bedding rock slopes being a common challenge characterized by instability and failure. Researchers in China have made significant strides in studying pile column piers on bedding rock slopes, focusing on pier stability, anti-slide measures, landslide impact, and slope-pier structural stress. This abstract provides an overview of their contributions.
