This study aims to evaluate the variations in strength and water content of mountain ground based on rainfall conditions. Field tests using an instrumented dynamic cone penetrometer and time domain reflectometry penetrometer are conducted with rainfall of 60 mm after 1 and 3 h and for rainfall of 30 and 90 mm after 3 h. Results show that the strength and volumetric water content of the ground surface decrease with time. However, the volumetric water content of the ground to depths greater than 300 mm increases with time. As the rainfall increases to 30, 60, and 90 mm, the strength of the ground decreases by 2.4, 5.4, and 7.5 times, respectively, according to rainfall, and the volumetric water content increases to 7.8, 18.5, and 21.7%, respectively, as compared to the ground before rainfall. This study shows that the strength of the ground rapidly decreases and the volumetric water content of the ground significantly increases under the conditions of 3 h and 60 mm of rainfall.
