These structures encompass building foundations, dams, slopes, shafts, tunnels, caverns, hydroelectric schemes, mines, radioactive waste repositories and geothermal energy projects: in short, any structure built on or in a rock mass. Despite the variety of projects that use rock engineering, the principles remain the same. Engineering Rock Mechanics clearly and systematically explains the key principles behind rock engineering. The book covers the basic rock mechanics principles; how to study the interactions between these principles and a discussion on the fundamentals of excavation and support and the application of these in the design of surface and underground structures. Engineering Rock Mechanics is recommended as an across-the-board source of information for the benefit of anyone involved in rock mechanics and rock engineering 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on July 25, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aRock mechanics 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 700 1 $aHarrison, John P. 776 1 $cOriginal$z0080438644$z9780080438641$w(OCoLC)68813467 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780080438641$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 907 $a.b13650749$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003220809707536 996 $aEngineering rock mechanics$91751377 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$genk$h0$i0
