In this laboratory project, I practiced analyzing highway embankment using GeoStudio 2012. A highway embankment is built in order to avoid the change in level. In this model, the embankment was constructed on a layer of soft clay and I needed to use GeoStudio 2012 to determine the location of the critical slip surface and the factor of safety. There are basically eight steps to analyze a new model using GeoStudio 2012. First is to start a new project, then, set the analysis options in KeyIn menu, next is to define the work space in Set menu. After which, set the axes propertied; define the material properties; set the problem geometry; draw the entry and exit points of the critical circle. After finishing all the setup, we are
