Abstract:As part of a continuing project to evaluate and improve maintenance activities a study on slope maintenance and slide restoration was undertaken. The problem of slope maintenance and slide restoration was identified by a number of States as a major maintenance problem involving a considerable expenditure of maintenance funds. These guidelines are divided into five chapters: (1) slide identification and definition of terms, (2) investigation and inspection of critical slopes and drainage, (3) maintenance activities that will aid in the prevention and minimization of slides, (4) maintenance activities that are related to particular distress items, and (5) repair and restoration techniques including relative cost information. The guidelines reflect the collective experience of the six participating States and are designed for use by the first level maintenance supervisor, the person responsible for scheduling day-to-day maintenance work.
