As a new green material, basalt fiber has the advantages of high strength and corrosion resistance, and is an ideal material for ecological protection technology. The rapid change of the hydraulic gradient within the slope caused by the sudden drop of river water level is an important factor inducing bank slope instability. Studying the stability of gabion slope protection under this condition is the key to evaluating the effect of gabion support. Taking a basalt fiber gabion slope protection project as an example, this paper carried out the stability study of the gabion slope protection under the condition of sudden drop in water level and compared it with the original slope. The stability was analyzed from the perspectives of deformation and stress, and revealed The deformation mechanism and the beneficial effects of the gabion structure during the instability failure process of the original slope. The results show that under the condition of a sudden drop in river water level, the use of gabion support from the left side of the slope to the slope surface can improve the stability of the slope, and there will be no continuous sliding surface in the slope, and the failure of gabion appears as partial dislocation and separation phenomenon. The research results provide important reference value for river gabion slope protection design and stability evaluation.
