Improving soil properties to prevent surficial slope failure
Many hill slope areas in Malaysia are vulnerable to soil erosion and shallow slope failures due to intense and frequent rainfall events. Rainfall induced slope failure can be attributed to: seepage force and seepage erosion, the loss of shear strength of the soil, and formation of tension cracks. Li...
