A rotational slip occurs when a portion of a slope slides along a curved or concave surface. This phenomenon, which affects poorly consolidated soil, may be caused by erosion at the base of a slope (river or waves) or by the addition of weight (construction), which makes the entire structure fragile and threatens its equilibrium.
