Consideration on Landslides Along the Median Techtonic Line Occurred by Road Construction

Abstract

The characteristics of the landslides along the Median Tectonic Line occurred by the road construction are considered. Most of the landslides are the sliding of the colluvial deposit by the cutting. The scale of the landslides is relatively small, up to 200m in the width and length, up to 30m in the depth of the slip surface. The angle of shear resistance of the clay in the fractured zone at the Median Tectonic Line is relatively small. This is one reason that the counter measure of the landslides at the Median Tectonic Line is difficult.
