Intro |
The climate changes of the past few years have put every existing infrastructure under the threat of unpredictable weather patterns. The danger of floods, landslides, erosion, avalanches and mud-slides is constantly lurking, especially in areas where man has actively modified the natural environment. By creating railways, mountain roads, highways, urban and industrial habitats, man has often put a significant strain on the adjacent mountain sites. The only way to provide considerable safety is by way of both active or passive consolidation of the sites at risk. |
