Abstract
Grandview Heights, Paya Terubong is an old apartment building situated on a coarse-grained biotite granitic bedrock hillside. Paya Terubong is a landslide prone area where various landslides have been reported since 1998. The granitic hill has been disturbed during construction of the apartment. Due to the possibility of future landslides, an engineering geological study was conducted to assess the stability of this rock hill beneath this apartment. The scopes of study included discontinuity surveys, geomechanical characterization of the rock mass and slope stability analysis.
