About the book

This book focuses on the fundamentals of rock mechanics as a basis for the safe and economical design and construction of tunnels,

dam foundations and slopes in jointed and anisotropic rock.

It is divided into four main parts:

- Fundamentals and models

- Analysis and design methods

- Exploration, testing and monitoring

- Applications and case histories.

The rock mechanical models presented account for the influence of discontinuities on the stress-strain behavior and the permeability of jointed rock masses.

This book is for:

- Civil- and Mining-Engineers

- Geologists

- Students in the related fields
