Abstract
According to the national standards, the earth load on a landslide retaining structure is based on the inter-slice force of transmitting coefficient method. The paper analyzes the problems of the current method in the calculation of the load on a landslide retaining structure and then puts out a new method for the calculation. The new method is based on on the slope stability analysis. This new method can remedy the defects associated with the current method adopted in the national standards.
