Description
Rock mechanics, the study of the mechanical behaviour of rock is a discipline in its own right, and now there is increasing motivation to apply its principles in engineering practice. This book aims to be a guide and overview to the fundamental role of rock mechanics theory in engineering.
Table of Contents
- Introduction - rock engineering projects, the geological background, the nature of intact rock and rock masses
- rock mechanics principles
- measurement of rock behaviour and rock properties
- excavation and support
- established applications
- new applications.
