Book Synopsis Clay Mobility in Landslides, Ventura, California by : Paul Francis Kerr
Download or read book Clay Mobility in Landslides, Ventura, California written by Paul Francis Kerr and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Landslides cover about 345 acres or 45 per cent of the eastern producing area of the Ventura Avenue oil field, California. Slide movement is ordinarily slow, being measured in inches or a few feet per year. However, unbalanced forces may culminate in massive movements. The last slide of considerable magnitude occurred in January, 1968, involving more than a million cubic yards, traveling a hundred feet within a few minutes. Fortunately, large fast moving slides are not frequent and occur in limited areas. The oil field landslides occur, for the most part, in Middle Pico Formation (Pliocene), where massive granular sandstones are intercalated at irregular intervals with clay-bearing strata. The sandstone is a sub-angular porous arkose, granular, and poorly cemented. Clay strata are ordinarily thin but contain substantial amounts of less than 2-microns montmorillonite with some illite and an occasional minor content of kaolinite. The clay-water mixture is probably the most important factor in landslide mobility at Ventura, although slope, structure, and compaction require proper consideration. (Author).
Book Synopsis Clay Mobility, Portuguese Bend, California by : Paul Francis Kerr
Download or read book Clay Mobility, Portuguese Bend, California written by Paul Francis Kerr and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The south slope of Palos Verdes Hills west of San Pedro, California, in the area known as Portuguese Bend contains an unusual landslide. The slide movement takes place in members of the Monterey Shale which contain bentonite; particularly the Portuguese Tuff. Samples of bentonite from the tuffaceous rocks are rich in Ca-montmorillonite which has definite thixotropic properties. When dry the clay is stable, but with the adsorption of water it swells and may ultimately flow. Overlying shale masses although substantial in themselves are slowly rafted down sloped on the underlying bentonite-lubricated slip plane. Movements have frequently been measured in terms of a small fraction of an inch per day, but during a year cumulative movement in places may amount to 10 to 30 feet. The physical properties of the clay have been studied in considerable detail and reveal a mobile material. Field observations indicate that enlargement of the slide area is also in constant progress. No field control of this situation has yet been established. (Author).
Book Synopsis Clay Mobility in Ridge Route Landslides, Gorman, California by : Paul Francis Kerr
Download or read book Clay Mobility in Ridge Route Landslides, Gorman, California written by Paul Francis Kerr and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several Landslides with substantial displacements along clay-bearing bedding planes occur in road cuts along the Los Angeles - San Francisco super highway Interstate 5, between Castaic and Gorman. Geometrically such slides occur where the strike of wet clay-bearing strata in road cuts lies parallel to the roadway, and the inclination is toward the road way at an angle less than the slope of the cut. They also occur on dip slopes. In a large fill across West Liebre Gulch, a special condition appears. Fill, emplaced when the freeway was constructed, suffered slide action following rains both in 1967 and in 1969. (Author).
