Slope failure analysis using chromaticity variables
Slope failure has become a major concern in Malaysia due to the rapid development and urbanisation in the country. It poses severe threats to any highway construction industry, residential areas, natural resources, as well as tourism activities. Thus, this study aims to characterise the relations...

description |
Slope failure has become a major concern in Malaysia due to the rapid development and
urbanisation in the country. It poses severe threats to any highway construction industry,
residential areas, natural resources, as well as tourism activities. Thus, this study aims to
characterise the relationship between chromaticity variables to be manipulated as indicators
to forecast slope failure. The concentration of each soil property in slope soil was
evaluated from two different localities that consist of 120 soil samples from stable and
unstable slopes located along North South Highway and East West Highway. Indicators
that could be used to predict shallow slope failure were high value of variable L*(62), low
values of variables c* (20) and h* (66). Furthermore, the hues that indicate stable slope
based on Munsell Soil Colour Chart are between 2.5YR and 5YR while the hues that
indicate unstable slope are between 5YR and 10YR. The overall analysis leads to the
conclusion that the reactions and distinctive changes of chromaticity variables between
stable and unstable slopes were emphasised as results of significant differences between
soil properties, the locations, slope stability and combinations of all interactions. |
