Abstract

The landslides remain among the natural disasters of earthquake, flooding, tsunami, erosion, ..etc that affect the life of the societies adversely. These movements, may depend on the geologic, geophysical and topographic features of the earth at one side, they might arise due to the effects of climatic, flora and fauna, and land usage of human beings as well. Especially, it is morelikely to meet with the landslide problems in a great extent, in design, construction and post-construction period of the highway implementation projects that remain among important infrastructure projects for urban and connects the urban living quarters. Since these engineering projects are the type of inter-disciplinary projects, the importance of joint and collaborative works increase dramatically among the relevant experts in civil, surveying, transportation, geology, geophysics and urban planning fields. In this study, while it is attempted to provide information about the encountered risks that may arise due to insufficient precautionary measures and some amendment, correction and prevention methods for the problems when encountered with landslide problems during the highway projects design, survey, and production stages, due care is also given for the importance of engineering measurements in these kind of experienced methods.
