Landslides in the Magho district of Fermanagh, Northern Ireland

Prior, D.B. / Graham, J.

Abstract Prior, D.B. and Graham, J., 1974. Landslides in the Magho district of Fermanagh Northern ireland. Eng. Geog., 8: 341–359. Rotational slumps, shallow debris slides and active shallow rotational slides are identified on slopes developed on rocks of Carboniferous Age. The rotational slides occur on shales which weather to produce a clay-rich soil. Direct shear tests give drained values ofφ′r = 8.2° andc′r = 5.0kN/m². Conventional stability analyses suggest that the residual cohesion parameter is significant. Stability calculations are facilitated by the use of a dimensionless stability coefficient.
