Rock Slope Engineering covers the investigation, design, excavation
and remediation of man-made rock cuts and natural slopes, primarily
for civil engineering applications. It presents design information
on structural geology, shear strength of rock and ground water,
including weathered rock. Slope design methods are discussed for
planar, wedge, circular and toppling failures, including seismic
design and numerical analysis. Information is also provided on
blasting, slope stabilization, movement monitoring and civil
engineering applications. This fifth edition has been extensively
up-dated, with new chapters on weathered rock, including shear
strength in relation to weathering grades, and seismic design of
rock slopes for pseudo-static stability and Newmark displacement.
It now includes the use of remote sensing techniques such as LiDAR
to monitor slope movement and collect structural geology data. The
chapter on numerical analysis has been revised with emphasis on
civil applications. The book is written for practitioners working
in the fields of transportation, energy and industrial development,
and undergraduate and graduate level courses in geological
engineering.
