Abstract

When natural slope is
disturbed by human activity such as road construction and infrastructure,
continuous landslide monitoring is important to prevent loss of material and
life. Therefore, this study aims to determine the landslide material, the
possible sliding surface and the influence of groundwater on the landslide
occurrence. Low cost monitoring landslide is performed which is vertical electrical
sounding (VES) and seismic refraction methods. Case study in Kisikli district,
Antalya Province, Mediterranean Region of Turkey. VES survey was performed
using Schlumberger electrode array at six locations. VES results interpretation
leads to detect of maximum five geo-electrical layers. First, second and third
layers represent saturated and permeable layer, while fourth and fifth layers
correspond to an impermeable layer. Seismic refraction measurements were
carried out on three profile layers. Low velocity and elastic parameters
relatively correspond to the permeable materials in near surface with thickness
about 4-5 m higher porosity. The integrated of VES and seismic survey allows
mapping the weathered material at depth and providing depth information of the
sliding surface which occurs at a depth between approximately 5 m and 20 m.
