Abstract
The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR), Engineering and Technology's (E&T) Geotechnical Section, have completed a research-based field trial aimed at developing a repeatable methodology to carry out geotechnical boreholes on steeply sloping ground. This has been presented in the context of slope failures, whereby the utilisation of this practise will provide subsurface information, which is directly representative of the area of interest, rather than that which is outside the landslide extent (current general practise within Australia). It is expected that the information gained from adopting this practice will enable optimum design and remediation treatments for landslides within Australia, and subsequently contribute strongly to sustainable project outcomes.
