contents Part I: Landslide in Vietnam Part II: Case study of Landslide in sri lanka
Part I: Introduction of Landslide in hoa binh province Vietnam The Hoa Binh province is located in the northwestern region of Vietnam. It covers an area of about 4,660 km 2. The maximum elevation in the province is 1,510 m above sea level. an increasing frequency of landslide occurrences due to: Heavy rainfall Tectonic activity Steep terrain Extensive clear-cut logging Five major fracture zones (Hoa Binh, Da Bac, Muong La-Cho Bo, Son La-Bim Son, and Song Da) pass through the province causing rock mass weakness.

Conclusion part I There are many of permanent retaining walls and anchor system for increase stability of slope and landslide prevention in Hoa binh. However, because of limited technology and budget for landslide prevention, there are issues for research and development in Vietnam beside achievements including: Technologies of landslide inspection, monitoring and forecast; Technologies of groundwater moving monitoring and control; Landslide mapping for Vietnam; Completion of experiments, analysis and selection of calculated data; Model technologies with data calculation and analysis and designing softwares;

Location Peradeniya town is located in Kandy district, Central province of Sri Lanka.
Importance of the area: The gateway to the historical city of Kandy. City is situated in the middle of two most important interchanges in the country A1 (Kandy Colombo) & A5 (Kandy- Nuwara Eliya) Highway roads and the most busiest road in the country. Some important places in the area: -Peradeniya Botanical Garden -University of Peradeniya -Peradeniya teaching hospital Mahaweli River (Longest river in Sri Lanka) flowing through peradeniya. Large scale commercial town.

INTRODUCTION Landslide Hazard in Peradeniya (November 2006) Landslide Hazard Zonation map of the area
Side view Front view
Occurred in November 2006 Large scale landslide and Rock falling 04 people were killed and 10 commercial buildings/shops were completely destroyed. interrupting road traffic for 03 weeks Sri Lankan government planed to resettle the town into a new location-iriyagama where1.5km away from the existing location. Not success as, -The commercial community rejected. -Very important and an attractive area in the country. -High cost involving for the proposed new town for a developing country
Geology of the area: Consisting with Reddish brown/yellowish brown Sandy clayey soil. Bed rock: Quartzo feldspathic gneiss Highly jointed/ fractured rock. Scarpment slope. Overburden soil thickness approximately 2.50m- 5.50m
National Building Research Organization (NBRO) carried out an extensive study of this area, culminating in a project proposal submitted to the Government in 2008. Since the year 2009, the Government of Sri Lanka has allocated Rs. 102 Million to mitigate this landslide.
Mitigation Process The mitigation work started in December 2009 by the Landslide Research and Risk Management Division (LRRMD) in NBRO under the Ministry of Disaster Management. The applied and proposed structural mitigation measures for mitigating this landslide include, trimming and benching, rock blasting, soil nailing, rock bolting, Construction and Improvement of surface drainage. turfing.
Trimming and benching:
Rock blasting
Soil nailing, rock bolting
Construction and Improvement of surface drainage
Turfing
Comparison Before Now
So far. 75% of the mitigation activities are completed under phase no-01. Two unstable potential landslide areas located besides the location. New Proposal: Extend the number of tracks on the main road and to upgrade the city with latest infrastructure facilities and recreational Facilities to function as a commercial and leisure area and to attract more local and Foreign People.
New Proposal
Landslide potential area-02 Mitigating area Landslide potential area-01
My recommendations: Continuous monitoring system for the potential area. Rain gauge Inclinometers Extensometers Monitoring camera Landslide early warning system with commercial building owners as the volunteers.
