Rock mass classification methods are commonly used at the
preliminary design stages of a construction project when there is
very little information. It forms the bases for design and
estimation of the required amount and type of rock support and
groundwater control measures. Encompassing nearly all aspects of
rock mass classifications in detail, Civil Engineering Rock Mass
Classification: Tunnelling, Foundations and Landsides provides
construction engineers and managers with extensive practical
knowledge which is time-tested in the projects in Himalaya and
other parts of the world in complex geological conditions. Rock
mass classification is an essential element of feasibility studies
for any near surface construction project prior to any excavation
or disturbances made to earth. Written by an author team with over
50 years of experience in some of the most difficult mining regions
of the world, Civil Engineering Rock Mass Classification:
Tunnelling, Foundations and Landsides provides construction
engineers, construction managers and mining engineers with the
tools and methods to gather geotechnical data, either from rock
cuts, drifts or core, and process the information for subsequent
analysis. The goal is to use effective mapping techniques to obtain
data can be used as input for any of the established rock
classification systems. The book covers all of the commonly used
classification methods including: Barton's Q and Q' systems,
Bieniawski's RMR, Laubscher's MRMR and Hoek's and GSI systems. With
this book in hand, engineers will be able to gather geotechnical
data, either from rock cuts, drifts or core, and process the
information for subsequent analysis. Rich with international case
studies and worked out equations, the focus of the book is on the
practical gathering information for purposes of analysis and
design.
