The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Repot Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

PREFACE

The JICA study team has designed and developed a systematic method of Inventory Survey to create the database on road slopes along the national highways of the Philippines. This has been named the Road Slope Management System (RSMS).

The purpose of the Inventory Survey is to identify and record the conditions of disaster prone slopes into a database to be used in the risk management of road slopes. This Guide presents the standard procedures for the inventory survey and risk assessment of road slopes. The inventory survey covers only the national road network.

The general methodology for the inventory survey is explained in Chapter 1, while Chapters 2 and 3 detail the procedures for implementing the inventory survey.

In preparing this Guide, technical transfer to DPWH road engineers in-charge of road maintenance was carried out successfully through the conduct of the actual inventory surveys. The nationwide inventory survey will be implemented in the near future.

This technical guide will therefore be helpful in planning appropriate road slope management infrastructure.

Definition of Terms for Risk Assessment of Road Slope Disasters (RSD) Terms Definitions Road Slope Disaster : A road slope failure, which could stop traffic flow and be dangerous to road users and inhabitants along the road.

Disturbance : Deformation of the slope and road structures, and slope collapse, which have not reached the road.

Visible Disturbance : Signs of potential disaster such as collapse, open cracks, depression, upheaval, muddy spring water on the road or slope.

Road Closure : A disaster which causes closure of the whole or partial width of Disaster the road [RCD] Deformations and collapses that do not close the road are not necessarily regarded as a RCD but just as a 'Disturbance'.

Loss : Monetary amount of damage caused by a disaster, specifically defined as the sum of the reopening cost, human lives lost, and detour cost.

Risk : The total damage characterized by the potential frequency and magnitude of the disaster. Annual total loss is an expression of the risk. The risk is distinguished from the hazard, which could be defined, in case of this Study, as the overt danger to the road and road users.

Frequency of Road : The number or RCD occurrences per year for a slope Closure Disasters per Year [FRCD]

Intensity of Road : Average RCD occurrences per unit length per year for a road Closure Disasters of section, i.e. the total FRCD’s for the road section divided by its Road Section [IRCD] length

Terms for Organization Terms Definitions DE : District Engineer (Head of DPWH District Engineering Office) DEO : District Engineering Office DENR : Department of Environment and Natural Resources DPWH : Department of Public Works and Highways NAMRIA : National Mapping and Resource Information Authority RO : Regional Office (DPWH)

1.2.1 Preliminary Inventory Survey (PIS)

The major objectives of the PIS are as follows:

• Screening of surveyed slopes,

• Estimation of Potential Frequency of Road Closure Disasters (FRCDp) of the slopes,

• Selection of slopes to be subjected to detailed surveys in the DIS.

(1) Screening of Surveyed Slopes The criteria for the screening of slopes to be surveyed are determined based mainly on the view points of road geometry and slopes that have or don’t have potential for RCD (Refer to Chapter 2). According to the criteria, slopes to be surveyed are determined during the initial activities of the PIS.

In this activity, the type of slope disaster is also identified and the result encoded in Sheet 1, which is prepared to record the general information on said slopes.

(2) Estimation of FRCDp of Slopes Investigations regarding Road Closure Disasters are focused on evaluating the level of instability of road slopes and FRCD (frequency of road closure disaster) has been developed as an indicator of slope vulnerability.

After screening of the slopes to be surveyed, the Actual Frequency of Road Closure Disaster (FRCDa) is recorded and the Potential Frequency of Road Closure Disaster (FRCDp) is estimated automatically by selecting the appropriate factor categories in Sheet 2, which has been designed to assess the instability level of slopes. The detailed procedure for estimating the vulnerability of slopes is described in Chapter 2.

FRCDa and FRCDp are defined as follows.

• FRCDa: Actual frequency of road closure disasters per year (nos. of RCD per year).

• FRCDp: Potential frequency of road closure disasters as estimated in the PIS (nos. of RCD per year).

NIPPON KOEI CO., LTD. 1 - 4 June 2007 OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

(3) Selection of Slopes for DIS Slopes to be studied to reduce disaster occurrence are selected based on the following criteria:

Selection Criterion for DIS: FRCDa≧0.1 or Visible Disturbance is Present, or FRCDp≧0.1

This criterion indicates that a slope has caused a road closure disaster at least once in the past ten years or that a road closure disaster is expected at least once in every ten years. Slopes meeting these criteria should be selected for the conduct of DIS.

1.2.2 Detailed Inventory Survey (DIS)

The major objectives of the DIS are as follows:

• Evaluation of the hazard condition of slopes;

• Countermeasure planning;

• Cost estimate for the countermeasure;

• Estimate of the disaster’s magnitude; and

• Calculation of risk level and feasibility indicators.

Three types of inventory sheets are prepared in the study: Sheets 3, 4 and 5 and by filling out these sheets, the major information to manage slope disasters can be obtained.

(1) Detailed Observation The first activity in the DIS is the detailed observation of a slope, which is recorded in Sheet 3, where the hazard condition of a slope is shown from the front view and cross section. Through this activity, the information to estimate the disaster’s magnitude is measured and planning of the countermeasure is identified.

(2) Countermeasure Planning From the result of the detailed observation of the slope, three alternative countermeasures are planned and shown in Sheet 4. The three alternatives for countermeasure planning are shown below:

NIPPON KOEI CO., LTD. 1 - 5 June 2007 OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

Sheet 4 is prepared for planning countermeasures together with the table of cost estimates.

(a) Alternative I: Permanent countermeasures (such as cast-in-place cribs and surface drainage work for road slopes)

(b) Alternative II: Mitigating disaster occurrence to some extent (such as retaining walls for soil collapse)

(c)Alternative III: Temporary measures to control disaster occurrence (such as vegetation for soil collapse)

(3) Cost Estimate for the Countermeasures The rough cost estimates for the planned countermeasures are computed in the appropriate table in Sheet 4. The unit costs for standard countermeasures are also computed in the estimation, which is described in Chapter 3.

(4) Estimation of Disaster Magnitude The estimate of the disaster’s magnitude, such as accumulation of soil/ rock volume generated by the predicted slope disasters, is carried out by filling out the cells in Sheet 5.

(5) Indicative Feasibility Assessment Indicative feasibility assessment (Sheet 5) is composed of three parts, enumerated as follows;

(a) Disaster Frequency and Magnitude

(b) Annual Losses without Countermeasures

(c) Feasibility Indicators for the Countermeasures

(a) Potential Disaster Frequency and Magnitude Disaster frequency was already assessed in sheet 2 and linked in this Sheet 5. Estimation of the disaster’s magnitude such as accumulation of soil/ rock volume on the road per RCD, and length of road closure is evaluated based on the ‘Detailed Observation of the DIS’ and filled out in Sheet 5.

(b) Potential Annual Losses Without Countermeasures Annual opening cost, annual value of human lives lost, and annual detour cost can be calculated in Sheet 5. For this estimation, coefficients, unit costs, and expressions are prepared in this Guide II by conducting an analysis of past disaster records.

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

(c) Feasibility Indicators for the Countermeasures The following indicators can be calculated for three (3) countermeasure alternatives in Sheet 5 by filling out the Risk Reduction Ratio (RRR).

Risk level outcome indicator:

Potential Frequency of RCD with Countermeasure (FRCDpwc)

Feasibility indicators:

• Benefit/ Cost Ratio (BCR)

• Economic Net Present Value (NPV)

• Economic Internal Rate of Return (EIRR)

1.3 Design of Sheet 2 to Assess Risk Level of Slopes

The evaluation of slope instability is undertaken using Sheet 2, which is designed for seven different disaster types considering the features of the various types of slope failure mechanisms and factors contributing to slope instability. Use of Sheet 2 is carried out using the process shown in Figure 1.2.

1.3.1 Seven Disaster Types on National Highways

It is important to classify the different failure types in evaluating the instability of slopes, since factors contributing to slope instability and the corresponding failure mechanisms are different for each failure type.

NIPPON KOEI CO., LTD. 1 - 8 June 2007 OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

The classification of slope disaster types is carried out to design a format to assess the level of instability of the slopes. The seven slope disaster types are defined as most frequently occurring in the national highways of the Philippines, which are listed as follows:

(1) Soil Collapse (SC),

(2) Rock Slope Collapse (RC),

(3) Landslides (LS),

(4) Road Slips (RS),

(5) Debris Flow (DF),

(6) River Erosion (RE),

(7) Coastal Erosion (CE),

The classification of the disaster types mentioned above is defined considering first the nature of the slope disasters occurring on the Philippine national highways and then comparing them to international text books and Japanese manuals on road slope disaster management.

The disaster types namely; Soil Collapse (SC), Rock Slope Collapse (RC), Landslides (LS) and Debris Flow (DF) are the common failure types occurring in the country’s natural slopes. On the other hand, Road Slips (RS), River Erosion (RE) and Coastal Erosion (CE) are failure types occurring on specific road structures that show various failure modes.

The schematic illustration for each disaster type is shown in Figure 1.3 and a brief explanation of each disaster type is described below. The detailed explanation of the seven disaster types are given in Appendix-2.

(1) Soil Collapse (SC) Rapid soil slope failure dominantly occurs in high cut or natural slopes with gradients of over 50 degrees. The material is generally residual soil produced by weathering of rocks or detritus soils hanging in steep slopes. Generally, collapse volumes are rather small, ranging from tens to several hundreds of cubic meters. Most soil collapse occurrences are triggered by heavy rainfall.

(2) Rock Slope Collapse (RC)

NIPPON KOEI CO., LTD. 1 - 9 June 2007 OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

Rock slope collapse occurs in hard rock slopes with gradients over 50 degrees. Collapsing modes are free fall or rolling of rock masses of up to several tens of cubic meters. In hard rock slopes, large scale slope failures occur in natural slopes such as large scale planar slides, spread, wedge slides and toppling. Under this classification, large scale slope failures are included in the “Landslide Type”, since countermeasures used to treat large scale rock mass failures are similar to those for preventing big landslides.

(3) Landslides (LS) The term “landslides” is often used in a general way to refer to all types of slope failures. However, under the current classification, a “Landslide” (LS) is defined as a large mass movement including large mass soil slide, rock wedge block slide, and rock slope toppling or

spreading.

The typical mode of landslides is shown in Figure 1.4, which is an internationally accepted concept.

Figure 1.4 Block Diagram of Idealized Complex Earth Slide – Earth Flows (Varnes 1978, Figure 2.1t)

(4) Road Slips (RS) “Road Slip” is a colloquial term commonly used by road engineers in the DPWH and refers to slope failure or deformation of road shoulders or pavement in roads passing through hilly areas.

Road slips occurring in many places along the national highways are caused by collapse of the valley side slope, scouring of slopes induced by water leakage from damaged drains and settlement of road embankments.

(5) Debris Flow (DF) Debris flow refers to the rapid flow of boulders, gravel, sand, silt clay and trees mixed with a large quantity of water that is mainly generated when a slope collapses during heavy rainfall. It flows down to the riverbed rapidly over ground with a gradient of above 20 degrees and stops and deposits in the riverbeds with gradients of below 10 degrees.

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

(6) River Erosion (RE) River erosion is a slope failure type occurring mainly in embankments and rarely in natural slopes along rivers. It is caused by continuous or repeated river erosion and scouring during floods.

(7) Coastal Erosion (CE) Coastal erosion is another slope failure type occurring along the coastline and is induced by tidal erosion of embankments and rarely on natural slopes along the coastal line.

1.3.2 Listing of Item Groups and Specific Items

To evaluate FRCDp, the specific items contributing to slope instability are selected. In this evaluation method, item groups and the specific items for completing Sheet 2 are listed below.

(1) Groups of Items for Analysis The following groups of items for analysis are listed in the Japanese Slope Inspection Format published in 1996 and should also be considered when analyzing slope conditions along national highways of the Philippines.

Group I: Geometry of Slope

Group II: Surface Condition of Slope

Group III: Disturbance of Slope

Group IV: Effectiveness of Existing Countermeasure

The above listed item groups are commonly used internationally, except for “Geological Condition.” This is listed as an item under Group II: Surface Condition of Slope. The geotechnical research on slope stability in the Philippines was not fully developed yet, as of the present, the listing of suitable item is difficult. Detailed judgment on geological conditions is rather difficult for the engineers of DPWH. So, geological condition is listed as an item under the “Surface Condition of Slope” group simply to make it easier for the civil engineers of DPWH to analyze it.

(2) Specific Items The specific items in each group are listed referring to the Japanese Slope Inspection Format published in 1996 and considered the failure mechanism of each disaster type as shown in Table 1.2 and Sheet 2-1 to 2-7 in Appendix 1.

1.3.3 Setting of Frequency Score Contributing to FRCDp

The road slope inventory survey can provide FRCDp as a risk level indicator as shown in Figure 1.5. FRCDp is calculated using the following formula. FRCDp = FRCDpoc x CCE

FRCDpoc = ∑ FS

NIPPON KOEI CO., LTD. 1 - 13 June 2007 OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

CCE = ∑ FRCDa / ∑ FRCDbc

FRCDa = Na/ Ya

FRCDbc = Nbc / Ybc

Where:

FRCDp= Potential frequency of RCD of a slope [nos. of RCD per year]

FRCDpoc= Potential FRCD of a slope without countermeasure [nos. of RCD per year]

CCE= Coefficient of countermeasure effectiveness for FRCDp of a countermeasure-type [coefficient]

FS= Frequency score for FRCDp (FS is assigned to each factor category of each factor item for FRCDp as shown in Figure 2.2 [nos. of RCD per year]

FRCDa= Actual frequency of RCD of a slope [nos. of RCD per year]

FRCDbc= Actual frequency of RCD of a slope before countermeasure is installed [nos. of RCD per year]

Na= Actual number of RCD of a slope in ‘Ya’ year [nos. of RCD]

Ya= Period of available disaster records of a slope [year]

Nbc= Actual number of RCD of a slope in ‘Nbc’ year before countermeasure is installed [nos. of RCD]

Ybc= Period of available disaster records of a slope before countermeasure is installed [year]

*Multiple regression analysis with a dummy parameter is a method of minimizing the residual sum of squares between actual value (FRCDa) and the predicted value (FRCDpoc) using the correlativity of FRCDa and the slope disaster frequency factors.

** FRCDa, if countermeasure is installed, FRCDbc should be adopted instead of FRCDa

Figure 1.5 Illustration of Analysis Method for FRCDpoc (Prediction Value)

A Frequency Score is assigned to each corresponding category of each factor item such as slope gradient, height, etc. and CCE are set by the pilot inventory survey of 251 km length (this was part of the preliminary inventory survey sections subject to FRCDp evaluation). The result of the analysis is shown in Table 1.3.

When new data from the inventory survey is obtained, these scores and coefficients should be analyzed and revised as necessary to improve the accuracy of FRCDp prediction.

2.3 Screening of Surveyed Slope

The slopes on both sides of the road (from the starting point to the end point) identified by kilometer station should be judged for potential to generate a RCD. Where the lanes in opposing directions are separated into divided carriage ways, the slopes of both carriage ways should be inspected and judged for screening.

All slopes that have had RCDs in the preceding ten years and where visible disturbances have been observed should be selected for the inventory survey. For slopes without previous RCD records, all slopes (cut slope, embankment, and natural slope) along the road should be inspected to be determined whether to conduct a detailed survey or not. The inventory survey will be based on the following screening criteria.

2.3.1 Screening Criteria for Soil Collapse and Rock Collapse

Cut or natural road slopes on mountainsides with a height of over 15 m and a distance from slope toe to the road of less than 15 m shall be surveyed in PIS (for SC, RC).

(2) Inventory Sheet 2: Selection of Sections for the Detailed Inventory Survey Sheet 2 comes in seven (7) variations, for the different disaster types. The engineer selects the appropriate form based on the disaster type identified during the field inspection in the preliminary inventory survey (refer to Appendix 1). These are as follows:

• Sheet 2-1 for Soil Slope Collapse;

• Sheet 2-2 for Rock Slope Collapse;

• Sheet 2-3 for Landslides;

• Sheet 2-4 for Road Slips;

• Sheet 2-5 for Debris Flow;

• Sheet 2-6 for River Erosion; and

• Sheet 2-7 for Coastal Erosion.

(a) Evaluation of Actual Road Closure Disaster Input the corresponding number of road closure disasters on the appropriate cell in Sheet 2 for the last ten (10) years for the slope unit surveyed, e.g., in case road closure disaster occurred five (5) times at the site, then input ‘5’ in the cell.

The frequency is counted without considering the closed period (day, hour), for example, if the road is closed for two weeks continuously, then the number of road closure is only one (1) as also the case when the road is closed for three hours.

The number of road closure disasters in the past ten years shall be counted based on the disaster records of the responsible DEO or according to the recollection of the inhabitants of the area.

The record of past RCD shall be arranged in Sheet 6.

(b) Evaluation of Disturbance Situation If ‘visible disturbance’ is present, input ‘1’ on the appropriate cell of Sheet 2. ‘Visible disturbance’ refers to collapse, cracks, depression, bulge, muddy spring water and other annoyance on the road body or slope which can be a warning of potential RCD.

(c) Evaluation of the Potential Frequency of Road Closure Disaster Potential Frequency of Road Closure Disaster (FRCDp) is estimated by checking the items contributing slope instability such as ‘Geometry,’ ‘Surface Situation,’ ‘Disturbance,’ and

NIPPON KOEI CO., LTD. 2-21 June 2007 OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

‘Effectiveness of Existing Countermeasures’.

The FRCDp evaluated on Sheet 2 is linked to Sheet 5 for the evaluation of annual losses without countermeasures and indicative feasibility assessment of the countermeasure, which is an important indicator to establish a reasonable management plan.

The definitions for each of these items are as follows:

1) Geometry

a) Length of survey section (in connection with SC, RF, LS, RS, RE, CE; Sheet 2-1,2,3,4,6,7)

Locational Reference Points (or kilometer posts) are installed in every 1 km interval along the roadside, which is used as reference in measuring the length of the survey section.

Road Closure Disaster (RCD):

It includes not only whole, but also partial road closure. In the survey, deformations and collapses that do not cause road closures were not considered/regarded as RCD, but merely as ‘disturbance’.

Actual Frequency of RCD (FRCDa): FRCDa =Na/Ya (no./year)

The Study on Risk Management for Sediment-Related Disaster on Final Report Guide II Selected National Highways in the Republic of the Philippines Inventory Survey and Risk Assessment

Where,

Na: Number of RCDs in the past (no.)

Ya: Period with Disaster Record (years)

2.5.2 Selection II (Evaluation by Disturbance) In case of Selection II:

If a visible disturbance is present on the PIS slope unit, the section should be selected for the DIS.

Disturbance: Deformation of the slope and/or road structures and slope collapse, which do not affect/reach the road, is treated as a ‘disturbance’.

2.5.3 Selection III (Evaluation by FRCDp)

In case of Selection III:

If FRCDp is equal to or greater than 0.1 (no./year), the section should be selected for the

DIS.

Potential Frequency of RCD (FRCDp):

FRCDp is calculated as the total of the factor scores for such items as slope gradient, height, slope materials, disturbance situation, etc., where factor scores are assigned for each type of disaster.

Estimation of FRCDp:

FRCDp= (Sg+ Ss+ Sd) × Ce

- Sg: Frequency Score Attributable to Geometry

- Ss: Frequency Score Attributable to Surface Condition

- Sd: Frequency Score Attributable to Disturbance

- Ce: Coefficient of Effectiveness of Countermeasure: (0.01 to 0.9)
