The first example is from Sakhalin Island in the Russian Far East. It is connected with a construction of oil and gas pipelines through the mountainous terrain in Makarov region. The region has an active geotectonic history and is highly affected by uncontrolled erosion and extensive landslips. Basic principles of landslide hazard mitigation are presented. The second example is from a motorway construction in Azerbaijan. This motorway leads from Baku to Russia through a seismo-tectonically active area at the toe of Caucasian mountains and in some places is situated in deep cuts at the toe of high slopes. This unsuitable routing, together with seismic activity, led to a slope stability failure of a slope affected by recent tectonic movements near the village of Devechi. Stability conditions and designed remedy measures are presented.展开更多

Highway as an important part, direct impact on a region or even a country' s economic development capacity. As an important national public infrastructure, highway construction requires a lot of capital investment as a support, but the highway has been a lack of funds is a major problem facing. Based on the domestic and international comparative analysis of highway financing mode, from both theoretical and practical aspects of the analysis of highway financing issues were discussed, and combine with the characteristics of highway financing system, propose suitable means of financing the construction of highway.展开更多
