Instability Process Model Test for Bedding Rock Slope with Weak Interlayer under Different Rainfall Conditions by Zhongming He, Baolin Wang

“…With the further penetration of the tensile cracks in the upper part of the weak interlayer, the slope had a large settlement displacement and gradually formed sliding shear deformation along the weak structural plane. Under the condition of equal rainfall amount, the condition of long-time heavy rain has a greater influence on the stability of the bedding rock slope with weak interlayer than that of short-time rainstorm. …”
