Effect of rainfall on the slope stability of residual soil in Singapore

The project characterise the soil properties of the residual soils of Singapore and to study the mechanism of rainfall-induced slope failures. The project consisted of field and laboratory investigations to establish the shear strength and permeability characteristics of selected residual soils, fie...
