Seasonal variations in the soil moisture content can result in significant changes in soil suction. Rainfall infiltration can cause loss of matric suction in the unsaturated lateritic soil. Several failures are reported in lateritic soil slopes in Kerala, associated with rainfall. Geosynthetics are generally used for improving the stability of soil...
