자생초화류 뿌리의 전단강도 보강효과에 대한 연구

Recently, attempts to use indigenous plants have been made for the recovery of nature of slopes and making permanent vegetation group, harmonizing with surroundings from the ecological perspective. For surface failure prevention of slopes, indigenous plants are known as superior to those of exotic grasses, but studies how much indigenous plants influence shear strength of soil is lacking. Therefore, in this study, strength increasement of the root-soil system were investigated for four indigenous plants.
