TY - JOUR T1 - ENGINEERING SEISMO-GEOLOGICAL JUSTIFICATION OF THE BAYIL LANDSLIDE IN 2018 AU - Garavaliyev, Etibar PY - 2022 DA - June JF - Seismoprognosis Observations in the Territory of Azerbaijan PB - Azerbaycan Milli Bilimler Akademisi WT - DergiPark SN - 2219-6641 SP - 34 EP - 41 VL - 21 IS - 1 LA - en AB - Landslides on the Bayil slope have been recorded since ancient times. Information about landslides in this zone was noted in the works of the oil geologist G.V.Abikh. It was reported that in 1874 and 1877, along the western shore of the Baku Bay, on a slope about 200 meters long, landslides occurred in areas of gray clay. Later, in 1927, 1929, 1951, 1968, 1973, 1996, activation of landslides was observed on the Bayil slope. On March 6-7, 2000 landslide demolished houses, gas stations, outbuildings, a factory floor, a highway, etc. and caused significant damage to the economy of the state. In the materials on all landslides in this area, it is noted that preventive measures were not carried out in full; on the contrary, work was carried out to promote the reactivation of the landslide. So, in the lower part of the Bayil slope, from the Intourist hotel to the Sabayil district fire department, construction work was underway, the road was dug, heavy equipment was used on the roads on the slope and traffic was more intense than before. All these factors are the reasons for the activation of the landslide. KW - landslide KW - engineering seismic exploration KW - transverse wave velocity CR - 1.
