An Investigation On The Slope Failure Of Bank Revetment Work Along Jamuna River At Chouhali, Bangladesh
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 10
Abstract
Failure of bank revetment work is often observed in Bangladesh which is a major concern for the country as considerable amount of resources are employed for the construction of the protection work. Consequently an understanding of the possible reasons behind such failures as well as the determination of remedial measures are important issues to be explored. This study investigates the probable causes of the slope failure of bank revetment work constructed on the left bank of Jamuna River which was later repaired. Recommendations were made to avoid such failure in future. Through systematic detailed analysis and investigation, the probable reasons of the slope failure were identified. Design of the revetment was reviewed and found satisfactory. From the field investigation and slope stability analysis it was revealed that the slope failure might occur due to some deviation from standard construction procedure and unfavorable natural phenomenon. Systematic construction method must be followed to avoid such failure. Regular monitoring and provision for proper adaptive and maintenance work must also be incorporated for the safety and sustainability of bank revetment work..
