Abstract

The main soil types in Ningzhen area is Xiashu loess which has special geology characteristic that vary significantly based on different level of water content. This paper intends to analyze causes of the landslide took place in Yongning town and find out how Xiashu loess becomes vulnerable under the action of rainfall. In order to evaluate the stability of a slope where landslide has occurred every year since 2010 and to prevent further damage, a series of test were performed and a method of random and fuzzy reliability analysis was introduced to determine relationship between water content and other factors that affect the probability of failure of soil, such as safety factor , shear stress and human activities.
