Maintenance consideration in slope design

Currently, most of the slope failure occurred in highways due to inadequate design and lack of maintenance to address current situation. Slopes failures along the highways in Malaysia have been occurring and can be considered as an unpredictable event. One of the good examples is slope failure, whic...
