This article presents a study of the influence of subdomain dimensions on the stress-strain state of road embankments. Its purpose is to determine the most advisable distance from the base of the slope to the boundary condition using computational numerical modeling as the chief tool, and performing an experimental design 3³ in order to achieve the stated goal. Recommendations are given for using different boundary conditions when varying the embankment slopes in problems related to road embankment modeling.

Keywords : Boundary conditions; Road embankment modeling; Numerical Modeling.
