Abstract:“5·12” Wenchun Earthquake resulted in large numbers of geo hazards along Dujiangyan Wenchuan Highway located in the zone of extreme quake areas. After this earthquake
most of valleys have favorable conditions for debris flow occurrence and are very active in the future 10~20 years
especially the beginning 5years after this earthquake. This paper mainly discussed and assessed the hazard levels of debris flow valleys based on the data of field investigation and high resolution remote sense image identification. The hazard assessment model for single debris flow valley was established using valley slope gradient and debris flow magnitude
and 29 debris flow valleys were assessed by this model and classified into 4 hazard levels of extreme hazard
high hazard
middle hazard and gentle hazard. The assessment result showed that most of debris flow valleys were in and over middle hazard level
occupied 79.31% and the valleys of extreme hazard level accounted for 20.7%. The most hazard valleys were Guozhupu valley
Manianping valley
Yeniu valley
Yiwanshui valley and Gaodianzi valley
and then were Xinqiao valley
Qinjin valley
Fendan valley and Cili valley. These valleys should be pay specific attention and make effective measures to predict
evade and prevent debris flow in the earthquake reconstruction projects.
