The Dharchula region in Pithoragarh, Uttarakhand, of the Himalayan mountainous range, is particularly susceptible to slope instability as a result of complex geological conditions, extreme rainfall, seismic activity, and human interventions. This study examines the potential for landslides along the Kailash Mansarovar Road in the vicinity of the Tawaghat Bridge. In order to ascertain the soil’s engineering properties, exhaustive tests were implemented, including sieve analysis, bulk density, specific gravity, and shear strength analysis. Five critical sites were identified. Slope safety factors were computed under a variety of conditions using GeoStudio software. This study integrates community engagement strategies, hazard mapping, and advanced geotechnical evaluations to improve regional resilience. The results offer critical insights for the planning and development of future infrastructure, emphasising the significance of sustainable practices and advanced technologies in the mitigation of natural hazards in mountainous regions.

摘要

The Dharchula region in Pithoragarh, Uttarakhand, of the Himalayan mountainous range, is particularly susceptible to slope instability as a result of complex geological conditions, extreme rainfall, seismic activity, and human interventions. This study examines the potential for landslides along the Kailash Mansarovar Road in the vicinity of the Tawaghat Bridge. In order to ascertain the soil’s engineering properties, exhaustive tests were implemented, including sieve analysis, bulk density, specific gravity, and shear strength analysis. Five critical sites were identified. Slope safety factors were computed under a variety of conditions using GeoStudio software. This study integrates community engagement strategies, hazard mapping, and advanced geotechnical evaluations to improve regional resilience. The results offer critical insights for the planning and development of future infrastructure, emphasising the significance of sustainable practices and advanced technologies in the mitigation of natural hazards in mountainous regions.
