Slope failures induced by rainfall are not uncommon in Singapore. As pore water pressure builds up in unsaturated soils due to infiltration of water, it reduces the matric suction of the soil. In turn reduces the shear strength and leads to slope failures. Measures to avoid or mitigate these types o...
