Construction of lined hillside drain. Removal of loosened blocks lying over the slope.
Construction of suitably designed retention wall.
Shotcreting of slope.
Preparatory Factors: Presence of closely spaced joints in the rock mass.
Presence of moderately weathered basalt.
Moderate slope gradient.
Slope is moderately dissected. Accelerating Factors: Percolation and circulation of rain water through the jointed
