8706 Phase2
Phase2 8.0 is an extremely versatile 2D elasto-plastic finite element stress analysis program for designing
underground or surface excavations and their support systems. Phase2 8.0 can be used for rock or soil
applications and includes finite element slope stability and groundwater seepage analysis.
Modeling
Phase2 8.0 provides material models
for rock and soil including Mohr-
Coulomb, Generalized Hoek-Brown
and Cam-Clay. Complex multi-stage
excavations can be easily created
and edited using state-of-the-art CAD
tools. Groundwater pore pressure can
be determined using steady state finite
element seepage analysis flows,
pressures and gradients are calculated
based on user defined hydraulic
boundary conditions.
Support Design
Phase2 8.0 offers a wide range of
support modeling options. Bolt types
include end anchored, fully bonded,
cable bolts, split sets and grouted
tiebacks. Liner elements can be
applied in the modeling of shotcrete, Tunnel supported by rock bolts, excavated below slope. Network of bedding and cross-joints automatically
created with the joint network option.
concrete, steel set systems, retaining
walls, piles, multi-layer composite
liners, geotextiles and more. New liner
design tools include support capacity
plots which allow you to determine the
safety factor of reinforced liners.
FE Slope Stability
One of the major features of Phase2 is
finite element slope stability analysis
using the shear strength reduction
method. This option is fully automated
and can be used with either Mohr-
Coulomb or Hoek-Brown strength
parameters. The analysis parameters
can be customized if required. Slope
models can be imported from Slide
and computed in Phase2 allowing easy
comparison of limit equilibrium and
finite element results.

and thrust-shear capacity for different values of safety factor.
