improving the reliability of 3d modelling of a landslide slope based on engineering geophysics data

Landslides are among the most dangerous geological processes, posing a threat to all engineering structures. in order to assess the stability of slopes, complex engineering surveys are used, the results of which are necessary to perform computations of the stability of soil masses and assess the risks of landslide development. the results of integ-rated geological and geophysical studies of a typical landslide slope in the north-western caucasus spurs, composed of clayey soils, are presented. the purpose of the work is to increase the reliability of assessing the stability of a landslide mass by constructing a 3d model of the slope, including its main structural elements, identified using modern methods of engineering geophysics. accounting for geophysical data in the formation of the computed 3d model of the slope made it possible to identify important structural elements of the landslide, which significantly affected the correct computation of its stability.
