RockPlane is a software tool for the evaluation of localized instability rock elements affected by seismic movements and/or by presence of water pressures within intersurface fractures. The software provides slide and overturning risk safety factors that enable verification of the stability of the block and as required the design of stabilization works using active or passive anchors and nails.

Verification is performed on the basis of Limit Equilibrium Method with Mohr-Coulomb or Barton-Bandis failure criteria.
On the block are taken into consideration: weight, hydrostatic thrust in tension cracks and seismic force.

	Computation of safety factor for slide and overturning;
	Computation of anchor whether active, passive or nail;
	Computation of safety factor after insertion of support works;
	Either triangular or rhomboid block form;
	All analysis can be performed in static or seismic conditions.
