Abstract
The Colle San Bartolo cliff, where the Fiorenzuola di Focara town lies, extends along the Adriatic coast for about 12 km in the WNW direction, between Pesaro and Gabicce. This stretch of coast is formed by a succession of synclines and anticlines whose axes run parallel to each other in nort-west direction. The outcrops consist of weakly-cemented sandstone and marl alternations, whose structure is quite complex with variable dips of the layer and discontinuities, such folds and faults. The instability phenomena, involving both the detrital overburden and the bedrock, may be classified as being composite and complex landslides. The stabilization works providing for the reinforcement of the slope under the ancient bell tower of th Fiorenzuola di Focara town have included the hydrological rearrangement of the strems, with geonets plus biomats and timber check-dams, founded on a double array of micropiles.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
