Rock mass classification tables: RMR and Q -- References -- IndexEngineering Rock Mechanics Part II: Illustrative Worked Examples can be used as an independent book or alternatively it complements an earlier publication called Engineering Rock Mechanics: An Introduction to the Principles by the same authors. It contains illustrative worked examples of engineering rock mechanics in action as the subject applies to civil, mining, petroleum and environmental engineering. The book covers the necessary understanding and the key techniques supporting the rock engineering design of structural foundations, dams, rock slopes, wellbores, tunnels, caverns, hydroelectric schemes and mines. There is a question and worked answer presentation with the question and answer sets collated into twenty chapters which match the subject matter of the first bookElectronic reproduction.Amsterdam :Elsevier Science & Technology,2007.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Web browser.Title from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).Access may be restricted to users at subscribing institutionsRock mechanicsRock mechanicsProblems, exercises, etc.Electronic books.localHudson, John A.,1940-Original00804301049780080430102(DLC) 2001267109(OCoLC)45991243Referexhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780080430102An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for informationPublisher descriptionhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0703/2001267109-d.html.b1365073703-03-2224-01-08991003220699707536Engineering rock mechanics1213512UNISALENTOle02624-01-08m@ -engenk00
