LANDSLIDE HAZARD MAPPING BASED ON GEOLOGY AND ENGINEERING GEOLOGY ATTRIBUTES IN NAM DAN COMMUNE, HA GIANG PROVINCE, NORTHWEST VIETNAM
Abstract
Almost all geology and engineering geology attributes of soil in Nam Dan commune, Xin Man district, Northwest province of Ha Giang, Vietnam are sensitive to landslides. This has been proven by the analysis of experiments, especially in-situ experiments. Based on the analysis of engineering geology characteristics and available maps of terrain, geomorphology, geology, tectonics and weathering crust, a geological engineering map has been established and is used for studying landslides. The map serves as a reference source to identify landslide points and areas that are at high risk of landslide along the provincial road No.178 and inter-village roads in the studied area.
