The frame beam anchor plate (FBAP) reinforced slope has been popularized and applied in some fill slope projects. Nevertheless, the existing design method ignores the influence of earthquake action and the suction effect of unsaturated soils. The stability of unsaturated soil slopes reinforced with FBAPs under an earthquake is analyzed based on the upper bound theorem of limit analysis and pseudo-dynamic method to solve the above problems. The influence of the suction effect on the effective weight and strength of unsaturated soils under one-dimensional steady seepage conditions was considered in the derivation of the energy balance equation. A simplified method based on the volume integral of the rotating body is used to calculate the external work rate. Two possible failure modes of anchorage structures are considered when solving internal energy dissipation. Results show that the influence of suction and seepage conditions on slope stability decreases with the increasing soil pore size distribution parameter n and saturated hydraulic conductivity ks. Also, the stability of the slopes is significantly improved with the increase of total rows of anchor plates. Likewise, the stability of slopes decreases with the increase in the horizontal seismic coefficient kh and amplification coefficient fa.
