The application of porous material in the capillary barrier system for residual soil slope stabilization

A drainage system that is used to flow excess rainfall infiltration is an excellent alternative to enhance lateral diversion capacity at the interface of Grade VI and Grade V soil slope layers thus delaying breakthrough occurrences. This study aims to explore the performance of porous transport laye...
