Landslides

Understanding Landslides and Their Impact

Landslides are a significant geohazard that can cause severe damage to infrastructure, transportation routes, and communities. Triggered by natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes, heavy rainfall, and wildfires, landslides involve the rapid movement of rock, soil, and debris down slopes. These catastrophic events can lead to road closures, property destruction, and even loss of life.

Causes of Landslides

Landslides are often a direct result of:

  • Heavy Rainfall & Flooding – Excessive water infiltration weakens soil cohesion, causing slope instability.
  • Earthquakes & Seismic Activity – Ground shaking can dislodge rock and soil on steep slopes, triggering landslides.
  • Wildfires – Destruction of vegetation reduces root reinforcement, making slopes vulnerable to erosion and failure.
  • Hurricanes & Storm Surges – Coastal areas face increased landslide risks due to storm-induced erosion and heavy precipitation.

Geohazard Mitigation Strategies for Landslides

Effective geohazard mitigation is crucial for stabilizing slopes and preventing future landslides. Our company specializes in emergency response and long-term stabilization solutions, including:

 

  • Soil nailing and anchored systems
  • Shotcrete and mesh reinforcement
  • Vegetative and geosynthetic stabilization

 

  • Rock scaling and removal of unstable material
  • Wire mesh, cable netting, and barrier systems
  • Anchored rockfall drapes and catchment fences

 

  • Installation of subsurface drainage systems
  • Surface water diversion and culvert installation
  • Erosion control solutions to minimize runoff impact

 

  • Deployment of specialized equipment for quick response
  • Limited access drilling solutions for difficult terrain
  • Design-build approaches for accelerated project completion
