Abstract

In the present paper, the features of landslide deposits formed during slope deformations are considered. It is concluded that landslide deposits should be considered as a specific genetic type of soils. The classification of landslide soils is given, including 3 groups and 6 subgroups. The division of landslide soils into groups and subgroups was carried out based on the degree, nature of preservation /modification of the structure and properties of soils in the landslide occurrence compared to primary, initial soils in the original (undisplased) massif. The paper considers landslide deposits of the first two groups of soils, their varieties, which are characterized by either minimal or significant changes in structure and properties. Examples of changes in the structure and properties of soils during landslide displacements are given
