This book offers solutions to problems of hazard control of
landslides in the highly seismic hilly areas and of tunnels in the
complex geological formations. It is complementary to authors' book
on Rock Mass Classification. Chapters on practical knowledge of
both landslide and tunnelling hazards and behaviour of rock joints
and rock masses are presented for preparation of realistic input
data. This data is easy to prepare. The emphasis is on proper
design of remedial measures and not on rigorous analysis. There are
18 practical and field-tested software packages on landslide in
soil and rock (Part A) and 6 packages on tunnels (Part B) along
with source programs, user manuals and solved examples. The
computer programs on back analysis of rock/soil slopes are useful
to analyse shear strength parameters along potential failure
surfaces. A special feature of these programs/codes is approximate
estimation of the dynamic settlement of slopes during earthquake.
The computer programs on tunnels/shafts are equally simple to use
for on-spot-design of supports with shotcrete/SFRS and rock bolts.
Program on squeezing deals with most challenging problem of
tunnelling in weak rocks. The chapter on subsidence due to coal
mines is based on extensive field research.
