Slope Failure Case Study In Malaysia
Slope engineering is primarily focused on landslides nowadays due to increasing number of its episodes.
Slope failure case study in malaysia. The purpose of this study is to analyze the slope failure using geostudio 2007 slope w software. An overview study on landslides disaster in malaysia stated. The study will analyze one of the slope failures which are occur along the road which may not safe for the road user if the slope continued to fail. In malaysia soil nail was installed with guniting for erosion protection at the soil nail area.
Analysis towards certain slope at malaysia is important due to many tragedy occurred effect by the slope failure. Back analysis of failed slopes a case study. This study explores the causes of highland towers 1993 landslide based on reliability analysis technique and taking into account the role of human. 1 failed portion of internal dump slope.
However in case of malaysia. Most of the landslides occur as a consequence of flawed design improper construction and non maintenance of slopes which correlates with the human errors. The top slope fissure usually indicates acrisols low base and plasticity clay soil is saturated with water. Responding to landslide hazards in rapidly developing malaysia.
According to a study the most dominant factor that catalysis the slope failure in many countries of the world is geological conditions. Even though soil nail was design in line with international practice slope failure still occurred. Most of the landslides occur on manmade slopes and it is actually the consequence of the uncertainties carried by different contributing factors. The range of soil nail slope height up to more than 40m and then the gradient was normally range between 2 1 up to 4 1.
By rule of thumb if you find stress fissure at the top slope the fos is around 1 1 to 1 2 where jkr guideline for slopes require around 2 0 2 5 for different criteria which forms the global stability requirements. A case of. Jamaluddin 2006 based on the results of wideranging studies on many slope failure cases in malaysia emphasized the role of human factors such as inattention ineptitude lack of adequate. This study involves the study case of slope failure at kuala wau kertau road in maran pahang.
One of the impacts of climate change is slope failure. Failure surface and also it is difficult to simulate the are many avoided by performing the back analysis. The objective of this study is to determine the cause of failure and evaluate the slope stability in order to propose remedial measure for stabilization. Back analysis can determine not only the material shear strength parameters but also give a better understanding of the failure which can.
