“Un sasso è caduto in un bicchiere colmo d’acqua e l’acqua è traboccata sulla
tovaglia. Solo che il bicchiere era alto centinaia di metri e il sasso come una
montagna e di sotto sulla tovaglia stavano migliaia di vite umane.”
“A stone fell into a glass full of water and the water overflowed on the tablecloth.
But the glass was hundreds of meters high, the stone as big as a mountain and
on the tablecloth there were thousands or human lives”

A Missing Factor:
A sliding plane, everything but plane!
•

M.te Toc slopes is located at the back-limb of the Alpine Belluno anticline and is
enclosed between two Dinaric and downward converging reverse fault systems
(Croda Bianca-Col Tramontin system and Col delle Tosatte fault).

•

This led to the N-S trending Massalezza syncline, which accounts for the two
distinct lobes of the Vajont sliding surface and is associated with a series of polyharmonic folds interfering with neo-alpine meso-folds.

•

The Massalezza syncline and related concave shape of the sliding surface
guaranteed the en-masse sliding of the 1963 event and favoured the separation of
the two collapsed blocks that followed different and northward converging sliding
paths.

•

Most of the folds recorded in the sliding surface pre-existed the landslide events
and may have affected the gravitational processes in different concurrent modes:
a. as meso-scale roughness/waviness, unevenly distributed on the sliding
plane;
b. through gravitational reactivation of the fold-associated flexural slip thrusts
which likely favoured clay reach layer interconnectivity

  • 24. A Missing Factor: A sliding plane, everything but plane! • M.te Toc slopes is located at the back-limb of the Alpine Belluno anticline and is enclosed between two Dinaric and downward converging reverse fault systems (Croda Bianca-Col Tramontin system and Col delle Tosatte fault). • This led to the N-S trending Massalezza syncline, which accounts for the two distinct lobes of the Vajont sliding surface and is associated with a series of polyharmonic folds interfering with neo-alpine meso-folds. • The Massalezza syncline and related concave shape of the sliding surface guaranteed the en-masse sliding of the 1963 event and favoured the separation of the two collapsed blocks that followed different and northward converging sliding paths. • Most of the folds recorded in the sliding surface pre-existed the landslide events and may have affected the gravitational processes in different concurrent modes: a. as meso-scale roughness/waviness, unevenly distributed on the sliding plane; b. through gravitational reactivation of the fold-associated flexural slip thrusts which likely favoured clay reach layer interconnectivity
