Seepage analyses aimed to predict rainfall-induced slope failures can be calibrated through laboratory investigation, which provide hydraulic and mechanical parameters representative of soil behaviour.
Thanks to laboratory equipment, A.M.R.A. will develop an experimental program investigate the mechanisms of rainfall-induced landslides in some geomorphological contexts.
The following report describes such instruments and the testing procedures.
