Abstract
Applicability of Imbalanced Thrust Force Method (ITFM) is investigated for shear strength parameter back-calculation of red clay slope. Equations are established for "similar" profiles, which possess similar geological conditions and similar sliding status or stage. Combined with the multidimensional chart of cohesion and friction angle, shear strength parameters are finally determined through trial calculation, interpolation and curve fitting. Moreover, research on back-analysis of compound sliding, including integral and sectional back-calculation, was proposed.
