Document Summary
In toronto, scarborough is the most dangerous area for mass movement because of the lake near scarborough. Unit for force: kg m / s2. Internal conditions of slop instability include: decreases in cohesion and . Cohesion soil is almost like a glue to soil; stick together. Example of cohesion soil is clay, silk, sand (making castle, walls, with little bit of water and sand) Between solid and water, there is a surface tangent, therefore water is always attracted. between water and salt there is a small connection called surface tangent. Once it is created then it will go up/ move ag4ainst gravity. Clay should not be involving in construction because in involvement with water, clay expends. Once it expends it creates crack for any chemical and object can go through. Clay with negative charge connect with positive charges. In disperse structure there is no positive or negative power, very much neutral.
