The Rissa Video
Co-incidental to the 1978 slide at the North Spur, in 1978, a quick
clay landslide took place at Rissa, Norway and led to an immediate
investigation and action.
In 1981, an instructional video was issued by the prestigious
Norwegian Geotechnical Institute which very graphically illustrates
the problem – to better understand the “quick clay” problem you
should view it.
