RocTopple
Toppling Stability Analysis for Slopes
Block Toppling Model
Analyze 2D block or block-flexural toppling stability given the slope geometry, and the joint spacing, dip and strength. RocTopple employs the Block toppling method of Goodman and Bray (1976), a Limit Equilibrium method which takes into account toppling and sliding failure modes of each individual block.
Support & Loading
Implement bolts to anchor potentially unstable blocks. Apply external loads to your models in the form of line loads, distributed loads, seismic loads and water pressure.
RocTopple across Applications
Take advantage of the flexural toppling model to analyze cracks and rock bridges in your mining projects.
Capable of analyzing block failure modes for all types of rock slope applications.
Analyze steep slopes like rock cuts and implement bolts for added support.
Explore the latest features in RocTopple
Block Flexural toppling analysis based on the Limit Equilibrium Method of Amaini, Majdi and Veshadi (2012), which considers block failure modes due to toppling, sliding, tensile bending and shearing.
Save time with the Batch Compute feature which enables you to compute several deterministic and/or probabilistic RocTopple model files (.rtop) at once and quickly generate results to text or Excel format.
Automate a deterministic or probabilistic analysis in RocTopple by reading in various numerical input data from an Excel template, and quickly generating computed results to text or Excel format.
