“…With slope design in mind, Yamanouchi et al (1982) proposed an engineering classiˆcation of primary Shirasu soil at both natural and cut slopes by using the soil hardness tester, which is a simple portable device capable of qualitatively estimating the mechanical properties of soil. Gotoh et al (1985) applied remote sensing technology to the estimate the slope stability to determine places where the potential of slope failure was high. In this method, the multispectral scanner data were used as the supervisor data obtained from sites where the slope failures had occurred previously.…”

Fig. 1. Mechanism of rainfall-induced slope failures 955SOILS AND FOUNDATIONS Vol. 50,No. 6,[955][956][957][958][959][960][961][962][963][964] Dec. ABSTRACTThe many recent slope failures due to heavy rainfall have been accompanied by signiˆcant loss of life, and massive damage to infrastructures and heritage. Many studies have been done to investigate the mechanism of rainfall-induced slope failures and establish a prevention system for slope disasters. In this paper, the state-of-the-art research works on slope failures due to rainfall published in the journal of Soils and Foundations (S&F) during the latest 50 years are reviewed and summarized. This report is written with the perspective that knowledge of unsaturated soil mechanics is necessary to elucidate the mechanism of rainfall-induced slope failure.
