Fighting a Landslide - Heavy Equipment against Natural Disaster

What happens here

The video opens with the presenter explaining the project's background: a significant portion of a hillside slope, including a public path, collapsed into a lake due to heavy rains. The county has hired his company to rebuild the slope. He briefly outlines the plan to remove the failed soil, install geogrid in layers, and then replace and compact the soil.

Goal: Understand the project's scope, the cause of the landslide, and the general reconstruction plan.
