ENGINEERING-GEOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE LANDSLIDE MLIJA AND THEIR IMPACT ON ENGINEERING STRUCTURES (OMIŠ, SOUTHERN CROATIA)

Abstract

In order to design the by-pass road of the city of Omiš which will partially he founded on the landslide Mlija and for the safety of foundations of houses, detail subsurface exploration especially engineering-geological surveys, geophysical surveys, boring and laboratory tests of the sliding material were conducted. Obtained results are presented in this paper. Due to numerous damages of roads, walls and houses built in the area of Mlija and Borak, the possibility of construction in the area was discussed and the foundation method proposed. In order to obtain an overview of circumstances, constant monitoring of variations of the water table level and velocity of the moving material has been proposed.
