As the complexity of unsaturated soil theory, and it must have a long test period when we study the unsaturated soils, so the conventional design analysis software does not provide such analysis, so we can imagine that such a slope stability analysis does not accurately reflect the actual state of the slope. Based on the known soil moisture content，this paper use the soil water characteristic curve and strength theory of unsaturated soil to calculate the strength reduction parameters of soil which can calculate the stability of the soil slope when using the common calculation method. It is noticeable that this method can be extended and applied if we establish regional databases for this simple method, and these databases can improve the accuracy of the calculation of slope stability.

The Stability

Rainfall is the main cause of landslides, the two are closely related. Based on the theory of saturatedunsaturated seepage and the theory of unsaturated soil shear strength, this paper makes an in-depth comparatve analysis on the infuence of short-term heavy rainfall and long-term weak rainfall on slope stability. The results show: The soil above the slope is more likely to reach saturaton under short-term heavy rainfall, while the infuence of long-term weak rainfall on the slope soil is deeper and the stability is greatly reduced. However, landslides with long periods of weak rainfall are more dangerous. In additon, the method of determining the critcal rainfall of a slope for landslide is obtained, and the safety status of the slope can be directly judged by comparing the actual rainfall with the critcal rainfall, and the classifcaton standard of the safety grade of a specifc slope is further obtained, which can provide reference for landslide preventon and treatment.
