The geological factors are to be considered prior to road construction as these greatly influence the final alignment of the road. Landslides are a type of "mass wasting," which denotes any down-slope movement of soil and rock under the direct influence of gravity.

Understanding the process can help you better manage the geotechnical engineer consultant and ultimately move your project . Strong soil is soil that does not expand or contract excessively in regards to moisture, and it has a good density, which means it won't greatly compact or settle after construction is complete.
