  • The Krvavec bottom cabin lift station protection against torrential hazards by a new slit check dam and a series of flexible net barriers
    Sodnik, Jošt ; Mikoš, Matjaž
    In May 2018, during a heavy local rainfall, a debris flood transported some 20000 m3 debris and destroyed torrential structures and damaged the bottom station of the Krvavec ski resort cabin lift. ... The return period of the local rainfall event was estimated to be above 50 years. After immediate mitigation measures in 2018 to remove deposited debris and clean the station, a technical documentation was prepared in 2019-2021 for a more detailed mitigation in order to protect the area from future debris floods and potential debris flows. After reconstruction of destroyed torrential control structures in the lower section, a large reinforced concrete slit check dam was planned at the confluence of the two main tributaries: Lukenjski and Brezovški graben. Its retention volume is 14000 m3 and its capacity to stop the inflowing debris will be supported by a series of flexible net barriers in the two tributaries, 12 barriers in total. Their height ranges from 3 to 6 m and their span from 9 to 25 m. This the paper presents a good example of the holistic approach how to control erosion processes that results in small landslides and granular/hyperconcentrated flows.
