| description | In the area Bosnia, landslides on natural slopes are frequent occurrences
that imperil some housing units, settlements, economic units and people's
life or they imperil traffic safety on the roads, degrade agriculture and
forest lands and they also lead to dislocation of surface and underground
waters. The main causes of landslides' activation are changes in level of
underground waters, chopping down of forest, great rainfalls, snow melting,
long drought periods, changes in slopes, changes in load of a slope, rock's
wastage, uncontrolled diversion of surface waters, earthquakes etc.
Researches on landslides are carried out in order to establish the cause of
landslide's origin and to find out efficient overhaul measures. Landslide's
overhaul success depends not only on established causes of landslide's
origin, but also on use of technical measures for stopping that process.
Overhaul measures' carrying out is important in protection of the
environment. This paper presents an analysis of co-action of natural factors
and negative anthropogenic effect in a settled area, where landslides appear,
by which studies and removing the causes are made conditions for the
successful stabilization of landslides. The paper shows some characteristic
landslides with defining of geomorphologic, geologic, engineer geologic,
hydrogeologic and geotechnical characteristics of the terrain. |
