Hydrotechnical Construction Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The predicted character of development of landslide movements permits saying that the slope is in a state of long-term creep and is extremely sensitive in the initial operating period to the character of technogenic effects.

  2. 2.

    Long-term stability of the slope is provided only in the case of implementing the complete system of landslide-control measures.

  3. 3.

    For monitoring the dynamics of the landslide process, it is necessary to continue instrumental observations during the entire operating period.
