Effective shear strength parameters of soil samples taken from slope failure along the KULIM – BALING road / Damanhuri Jamalludin... [et al.]

Slope failures always occur in Malaysia especially during the monsoon seasons between October and January every year causing fatalities and damages to properties. The main factors causing the slope failure to occur are reduction of the shear strength parameters and loss of negative suction due to sa...
