Model slopes (unit: mm). (a) Q1: slope with a slope ratio 1 : 0.5. (b) Q2: slope with a slope ratio of 1 : 0.5 supported by a 370 mm wide geobag retaining wall. (c) Q3: slope with a slope ratio of 1 : 0.5 supported by a 570 mm wide geobag retaining wall. (d) Q4: slope with a slope ratio of 1 : 0.25 supported by a 370 mm wide geobag retaining wall. (e) Q5: slope with a slope ratio of 1 : 0.75 supported by a 370 mm wide geobag retaining wall.
