Embankment collapse due to heavy rainfall along railway lines takes a variety of shapes and scales, which need to be predicted to determine effective measures for prevention. The results of such prediction also give information that is useful in estimating the amount of damage that will be caused to railway lines. Accordingly, we carried out statistical analysis of many past collapse examples and developed a method to predict the shape and scale of embankment failure. This report gives an outline of the method.
