The Huafan University campus is located in the Ta-lun Shan area in northernTaiwan, which is characterized by a dip slope covered by colluvium soil ofvarious depths. For slope disaster prevention, a monitoring system wasconstructed that consisted of inclinometers, tiltmeters, crack gages,groundwater level observation wells, settlement and displacement observationmarks, rebar strain gages, concrete strain gages, and rain gages. Themonitoring data derived from hundreds of settlement and displacementobservation marks were analyzed and compared with the displacement recordedby inclinometers. The analysis results revealed that the maximum settlementand displacement were concentrated on the areas around the Hui-Tsui, Zhi-An,and Wu-Ming buildings and coincided with periods of heavy rainfall. Thecomputer program STABL was applied for slope stability analysis and modelingof slope failure. For prevention of slope instability, a drainage system andtieback anchors with additional stability measures were proposed todischarge excess groundwater following rainfall. Finally, threshold valuecurves of rainfall based on slope displacement were proposed. The curves canbe applied for predicting slope stability when typhoons are expected tobring heavy rainfall and should be significant in slope disaster prevention
