3D Limit Equilibrium Analysis for Slopes
Integration with Radar Data
Streamline your workflow and get more detailed insights by integrating 3D wireframes (representing surveyed topography, geological surfaces, modelled faults, etc.) directly into your 3D models.
3D Model Creation – Point cloud, LiDar, Leapfrog
Constructing slope stability models is easier and faster than ever before. Import surfaces from geological modelling or mine planning software or use built-in surface construction methods using coordinates or borehole data. Choose to build surfaces from point cloud data or import block models from applications such as Leapfrog, Deswik, Datamine, and Vulcan.

Slide3 across Applications
Slide3 contains features such as rapid drawdown, complex pore pressure distributions, many non-linear material models, and unsaturated strength, that make it suitable for the modeling of dams and embankments. It has been used extensively on both hydroelectric and tailings dams. The ability to easily link to RS3’s powerful steady-state and transient groundwater analyses means it can account for any possible pore pressure conditions.
Slide3’s extensive support library makes it easy to model retaining walls. Support can be defined individually or through user-defined support patterns. Geogrids can also be easily added to a model using an Excel import facility. This allows for hundreds of individual geogrids to easily be defined.
Slide3’s ability to import surface, point cloud, and block model data make it extremely easy to construct open-pit slope models. Built-in display of radar displacement data, in conjunction with surface safety maps, make it a comprehensive tool for monitoring and calibrating pit wall stability problems.
Slide3’s design was engineered to be equally applicable to both rock and soil slopes. It has a complete material library of both rock (Mohr-Coulomb, Generalized Hoek-Brown, Barton Bandis, Anisotropic etc.) and soil (Mohr-Coulomb, SHANSEP, Vertical stress ratio, Power Curve, Shear-Normal, etc.) material models. Slide3’s large support library is also applicable to both rock and soil.
Explore the latest features in Slide3
The Spline Search method provides you with greater flexibility for capturing complex failure mechanisms. Transform the shape of a slip surface, accurately define the shape of the failure surface, and identify the correct FoS in your geometry.
Designed to provide you with accurate topography for geometry creation, with the Terrain Generator, directly import terrains together with their textures from satellite maps. Compare & verify the accuracy of your failure surface with the drone-captured image.
Using the multi-section creator, you can create multiple 2D Slide2 sections in Slide3 while running a 3D analysis. View the different 2D sections and their failure surfaces while comparing them with your 3D analyses at the same time.
