Abstract
Urbanization has been related to natural disasters such as landslides and debris flows that can cause fatality, destruction of infrastructure and environmental impacts. From 19 to 20 August, 2014, heavy rainfall occurred in Hiroshima city causing many landslides and debris flows. This disaster killed 74 people, 255 houses damaged and a total of 4,576 houses were affected reported by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism of Japan (MLIT). The cumulative rainfall from 8:30 PM of August 19 until 04:30 AM of August 20 reached 248 mm at Miiri rain gauge station in Hiroshima. This is the main reason caused the Hiroshima disasters. Although intense rainfall in the short time was the trigger, urbanization into the foot of steep mountain slope lead to increase the loss of life. This paper presents the adverse effects of urbanization on basis of site investigation and multi-temporal satellite images and estimate hazard zoning causing by a potential landslide using the ring shear tests and integrated simulation model.
