This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 3791 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rock Mechanics for Natural Resources and Infrastructure Development contains the proceedings of the 14th ISRM International Congress (ISRM 2019, Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil, 13-19 September 2019). Starting in 1966 in Lisbon, Portugal, the International Society for Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering (ISRM) holds its Congress every four years. At this 14th occasion, the Congress brings together researchers, professors, engineers and students around contemporary themes relevant to rock mechanics and rock engineering. Rock Mechanics for Natural Resources and Infrastructure Development contains 7 Keynote Lectures and 449 papers in ten chapters, covering topics ranging from fundamental research in rock mechanics, laboratory and experimental field studies, and petroleum, mining and civil engineering applications. Also included are the prestigious ISRM Award Lectures, the Leopold Muller Award Lecture by professor Peter K. Kaiser. and the Manuel Rocha Award Lecture by Dr. Quinghua Lei. Rock Mechanics for Natural Resources and Infrastructure Development is a must-read for academics, engineers and students involved in rock mechanics and engineering. Proceedings in Earth and geosciences - Volume 6 The ‘Proceedings in Earth and geosciences’ series contains proceedings of peer-reviewed international conferences dealing in earth and geosciences. The main topics covered by the series include: geotechnical engineering, underground construction, mining, rock mechanics, soil mechanics and hydrogeology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) Rockfall Hazard Classification and Mitigation System research project was initiated in February 2003. Once customized for MDT conditions, the Rockfall Hazard Rating System (RHRS), a nationally recognized rock slope management tool, was selected for implementation in order to provide the information MDT needed to make informed decisions on where to invest safety dollars at rockfall related locations. An initial review of the highway system using MDT Transportation Information System (TIS) ImageViewer was completed. Roughly 2,600 potential rockfall sites were identified. Using a web based questionnaire, rockfall history and behavior information was gathered for each site from the local maintenance person responsible for the affected portion of roadway. A Preliminary Rating was performed on each identified site. In all, 2,653 sites were visited resulting in 1,869 sites being categorized as either A or B sites, indicating a potential to produce a hazardous rockfall situation. The remaining sites that were deemed to pose no or a very low threat of a hazardous situation occurring were eliminated from further consideration. The Detailed Ratings were conducted at the 869 A sites. Once the Detailed Ratings were completed, and based on a decision by the MDT Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), only those sites that received a Detailed Rating score greater than 350 points were categorized as A rated sites. The resulting database contains 368 A rated sites. The top 100 A rated sites, those with a score greater than 471 points, were further evaluated and had preliminary designs and cost estimates prepared. The designs included only those elements directly associated with rockfall mitigation. This information will allow MDT to include cost and associated benefits as they proceed with development of rockfall mitigation projects.

Download or read book Rockfall Hazard Classification and Mitigation System written by Lawrence Pierson and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classification and Mitigation System research project resulted in the development of a Rockfall Hazard Rating System (RHRS). The MDT developed the RHRS for use on the Department’s state-maintained roadways. A secondary research project, the Rockfall Hazard Process Assessment, concluded October 2017. This research gave rise to a planning tool for future rockfall mitigation projects.

Download or read book Colorado Rockfall Simulation Program written by Timothy J. Pfeiffer and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This rockfall computer program, which simulates rocks tumbling down a slope, predicts the statistical distribution of speed and bounce height, and can be used for locating and designing rockfall mitigation. The model takes into account, slope profile, rebound and friction characteristics of the slope, and spinning energy of the rocks. Spherical, cylindrical and disk shaped rocks can be simulated. At each impact, the slope angle is randomly varied from the nominal value input by the user within the limit set by the maximum probable variation in the slope. Version 3.0 of the Colorado Rockfall Simulation Program is similar to version 2.1 in terms of the operating environment, but additional statistical output has been added and the ability to use metric units has also been added. This manual reflects version 3.0 input and output. The model is recommended as a tool for geologist[s] and engineers responsible for analyzing and mitigating rockfall hazards."--Technical report documentation page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there are no national standards for rock slope design and rockfall management, many state departments of transportation (DOTs) have developed their own design goals and objectives. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Synthesis 588: Design Practices for Rock Slopes and Rockfall Management documents DOT practices for the design of rock slopes and rockfall mitigation systems.
