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 compleEngineering geologyTunnelingFoundationsLandslidesPreventionRocksClassificationRock mechanicsEngineering geology.Tunneling.Foundations.LandslidesPrevention.RocksRock mechanics.625.1/22625.122Singh Bhawani627274Goel R.
