This Special Report is a greatly expanded edition of a previous report on landslides (Special Report 176, Landslides: Analysis and Control) published in 1978. The new report, which has been designed with an even broader international scope, contains comprehensive, practical discussions of field investigations, laboratory testing, and stability analysis procedures and technologies; comprehensive references to the literature; and discussions of case studies, state-of-the-art techniques, and research directions. The report is presented in five sections: (1) Principles, Definitions, and Assessment; (2) Investigation; (3) Strength and Stability Analysis; (4) Mitigation; and (5) Special Cases and Materials. The report's 25 chapters are individually authored and each has a separate entry in the TRIS data base. An Author Index and a Subject Index are provided.

In this second edition new information is included on pipelines, deepwater oil and gas, and remote sensing imagery with GIS. The sections on probabilistic methods and quantitative hazard and risk assessment have been expanded. New case studies and practical do's and don't's make this product a vital handbook for all those working in the field.

Hardcover. Landslide Risk Assessment, Third Edition is the essential guide on establishing the likelihood and extent to which future slope failures could adversely impact society and affect urban areas. This book examines a variety of approaches to landslide risk assessment and management. It introduces the key challenges that practitioners will need to overcome when estimating the probability and consequences of landsliding. The use of risk criteria is described, marking the important transition between risk assessment and risk management. Now updated with the latest ISO and Society for Risk Analysis guidance, and with a focus on the impact of uncertainty and strength of knowledge on assessing risk plus much more, this book is the authoritative, must-have purchase for any practitioner operating in this area. With international case studies and examples to allow you to put theory into practice, this book covers:risk concepts and modelsbasic elements of landslide risk assessmentlandslide hazardqualitative and quantitative risk assessmentsexposure and vulnerabilityconsequencesquantifying riskassessing uncertainty and strength of knowledgeThis title will appeal to any geotechnical or civil engineer involved in slope engineering and landslide risk. It will have additional appeal to risk analysts, geomorphologists, hydrologists, foresters, environmental consultants, students, academics and researchers. Landslide Risk Assessment, Third Edition is the essential guide on establishing the likelihood and extent to which future slope failures could adversely impact society and affect urban areas.

The authoritative guide to landslide investigation, evaluation, and mitigation design Landslides in Practice combines clearly written descriptions and real-life case histories in an authoritative, practical guide to landslide investigation, evaluation, and mitigation design. It presents state-of-the-art investigative techniques and practical information on proven remediation techniques and technologies, including handy checklists for undertaking an initial field examination of a landslide. Landslides in Practice describes the technical tools needed to study landslides-site investigations, soil shear strength properties, and slope stability analyses-and details forty-five methods for stabilizing landslides or preventing instability in soils from occurring. Most remediation techniques are keyed to the ENR Construction Cost Index to help readers determine a rough estimate of the costs associated with the various techniques. To-the-point summaries explain presented techniques without confusing jargon, and dozens of succinct case histories integrated throughout the book serve as useful examples. In addition, twelve expanded case histories illustrate in depth many aspects of the landslide events and remediation strategies covered. Complete with hundreds of informative illustrations, Landslides in Practice is a valuable resource for engineers, geologists, consulting firms, and construction companies, as well as landscape architects, land developers, and trial lawyers in the construction industry.
