Stability Prediction of Zhaoshuling Landslide by Physical Model Test

Abstract:

Physical model experiments are conducted to study the potential deformation and failure mechanism of Zhaoshuling landslide in the reservoir area of the Three Gorges project under the action of reservoir impoundment, water level fluctuation, building load and possible seismic load. Dial gauges, grid lines and digital cameras are used to monitor and record the deformations and displacements of the models. Research results indicate that the landslide will be basically stable while covered with seven-floor buildings whether the water level be at 145m or 175m, or falls abruptly from 175m to 145m. When the intensity of an earthquake is beyond certain degree, the rock mass will deforms and lose stability partly; and its stability will be worst when the water level falls from 175m to 145m, stability will be better when the level being at 145m and it will be best when the level being at 175m. It also indicate from deformation and failure mechanism revealed by the experiments that the best position of reinforcement measures is in Yanjiang Avenue, and the sliding resistance of the rock mass in the front part of the landslide can be used.
