• Abstract:
  Soil slides often require immediate action to keep traffic moving safely. This study will ; focus on developing newer (innovative) approaches to evaluate slope failures and ; provide cost-effective repair and mitigation techniques. Typically slides are repaired by ; excavating the slide material and then backfilling with more stable material. However, ; MoDOT is looking for the researcher to review newer more innovative techniques that ; have been deployed nationally by other State Departments of Transportation, ; Geotechnical journals, Geotechnical contractors and any organization that is responsible ; for the repair of landslides. The goal is to find repairs that provide for long-term ; stabilization, but that are more cost effective than the typical excavation method. The ; research is to develop a listing and description of these innovative slope repair ; techniques. The study shall provide MoDOT with descriptions of when these innovative ; techniques could be deployed and what are the resources, materials, equipment and ; personnel needs required to accomplish such repairs.
