The first comprehensive treatment of the subject of design
methodology in rock engineering, this book emphasizes that a good
designer needs not only knowledge for designing (technical
knowledge) but also must have knowledge about designing (an
appropriate process to follow). Design methodology is today
recognized in most fields as crucial to the success of a new
product, process, or construction project. This unique book starts
with an appraisal of current trends concerning global design
activities and competitiveness and gives an insight into how
designers design. The state of the art in engineering design is
given with a detailed expose of all significant design theories and
methodologies. It then presents a design methodology specifically
for rock engineering and demonstrates its practical use on the
basis of important case histories. To preserve the momentum of the
design message, design education is also discussed. A separate
chapter is devoted to skills development, presenting the designer
with an extensive repertoire of widely available tools and
concepts. The Appendix lists a compendium of useful design charts
for rock engineering, traced after a thorough literature search. A
Bibliography concludes the book with an up-to-date list of
references.
