The mechanical weathering of marl in the form of disintegration of intact material caused by
repeated drying and wetting, also known as “slaking”, is an important factor affecting the …

Embankments made from crushed soft rock grains can be susceptible to additional
settlement caused by a deterioration of the grains inside the embankment. This additional …

Usage of Terrestrial Laser Scanners (TLS) is currently the best way of monitoring and
detecting changes in slope morphology. In this study Optech ILRIS-3D was used. First scan …

The Krbavčići landslide occurred in January 1979 near the town of Buzet, Croatia, after a
long period of heavy rainfall. It is located in Northern Istria in the area built of flysch rock …

Surface degradation processes and landslides are quite frequent on slopes excavated or
naturally formed in soft rock formations. Such slopes are susceptible to rapid weathering …

As a typical example of cut slope in this region, an abandoned quarry in flysch rock mass in
Majdan was selected, since it is intended to be reused as a recreation area. On the eastern …

Micro-textural variations are essential for understanding variation in strength and failure
behavior of rock material. Therefore the effects of petrography and mineralogy on …

Abstract The Valići Landslide occurred near the Valići Lake in outback of the City of Rijeka,
Croatia, in February 2014 after long term period of heavy rainfall. The landslide is located on …

Some of the main soft rock characteristics are relatively rapid deterioration and degradation
of strength when soft rock is exposed to atmospheric agents. For this study marl samples …

When the recommendations in the standards and literature have been interpreted,
representative test samples using in SDI test should be prepared as equal size, equal mass …
