EXPLORATION OF LANDSLIDE AREA ON TOHOKU SHIN KANSEN

A massive embankment including counterweight fills was adopted for the Tohoku SHIN KANSEN Line at a small landslide area near Mizusawa. In this paper an outline of the results of soil explorations and field observations to understand the state of the landslide is presented first. Then some problems about the stability of the slope and of the embankment against sliding failure are discussed.
