Abstract

The landslide located at the 5 de Junio street and the 24 de Mayo Av., in the city of Cuenca, is causing partial or total structural damages in many houses of this sector, as well as notable deformations in the roads causing several traffic accidents. The instability of this colluvial slope seems to be related to: (i) its strong slope in the upper part, (ii) the low cohesive clay sands conforming the colluvium, (iii) an important contribution of groundwater, that according to the residents, increased after the construction of the Cuenca-Azogues highway, and (iv) the lack of adequate surface and underground drainage to the nearby Tarqui and Yanuncay rivers. In the research presented in this paper we attempted to quantify the sliding kinematics. To do this, two surveys were carried out by means of a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) in June and July 2017. The comparison in CloudCompare of both surveys revealed that the sliding did not result in significant movements in the short and dry period of analysis. However, the morphological analysis of the landslide surface and its relationship with the spatial distribution of the damages in buildings allowed us to identify the typology of this landslide, specifically a complex earth slide or earth flow.
