Abstract
This article contains the results of engineering and geological surveys and geotechnical calculations made for the development of the sports complex STK "Mountain Air" in the south-eastern part of Sakhalin Island. Design and survey work is performed, as well as reconstruction and setup of the associated infrastructure of the complex, including the construction of ski slopes and cable-ways. The description of the designed supporting and retaining structures is given.
Highlights
Ski resorts are among the important recreational and entertainment infrastructures. Their development is directly related to construction in hard-to-reach mountainous areas, often with a difficult geological situation
The danger of a catastrophe is directly related to anthropogenic activity on the slopes prone to landslides
In cases where it is impossible to unequally ensure safe operation, they consider an acceptable level of safety
Summary
Ski resorts are among the important recreational and entertainment infrastructures. Their development is directly related to construction in hard-to-reach mountainous areas, often with a difficult geological situation. Landslide danger arises when natural processes or people infringe upon the stability of the slope. The danger of a catastrophe is directly related to anthropogenic activity on the slopes prone to landslides. The variety of dangerous consequences, including colossal economic damage, is becoming a serious threat, for the prevention of which comprehensive engineering protection is required. Considerable coefficient of slope stability, economic risks, probability of success, etc. The engineering task is supplemented with an assessment of possible damages and considering the probability of an event
