Abstract

The current study summarizes a vast body of knowledge encompassing an inventory of landslide cases, overview of mechanisms of landslide development, and slope stability assessments.

A new mechanism-based landslide classification is presented and discussed. The mechanism of formation of the limiting state in a soil mass during the preparation of the landslide is considered. The equations for assessment of a soil mass limited state prior landslide formation were obtained. Also the equation for calculation of a landslide slip surface depth was obtained, using slope morphological and soil strength parameters.

The article also contains scientific explanation of effective reinforcement of territories with deep block-type landslides. The suggested protection strategy bases on theoretical solutions of preparing of a destructive phase of landslide deformations, on taking into account mechanism peculiarities of deep block-type landslides, and also on investigation experience of such landslides in different engineering-geological conditions.
