As construction and reclamation activities become larger and more widespread the distribution of man-made strata is rapidly extending especially in developed countries. Such strata are often more likely to suffer geo-hazards or to contain harmful substances than natural strata. In particular, geological disasters are often associated with the unconformity between artificial and natural strata (known in Japan as the Jinji Unconformity) with highly consolidated strata beneath and less consolidated above.
