Abstract
Landslide caused by rainfall are easily produced when excavating conduct in sandstone-covered mudstone strata. The expansion project of the Heishan Village to Jixi section of Dan-A Highway is used as an example to study the formation and damage mechanism of rainfall-induced landslide in sandstone-covered mudstone cutting slope. Finite element numerical is used to analyze the stability of the slope by using Geo-Studio and ANSYS software for the three different rainfall-influencing factors of rainfall intensity, duration and rainfall form. The study indicates that rainfall time and intensity will decrease the stability of the cutting slope, and that the effect of rainfall on the slope is lagging behind. When rainfall intensity is 80 mm, rainfall duration is 1 d, and stagnation is 5 h, the slope instability is in the critical state. The front slope toe is the first unstable part in the process of slope instability. Rock and artificial construction are important reasons for this phenomenon.
