Abstract: |
||||
|
Unlike soil, rock mass is a heterogeneous material containing discontinuities in the form of joints, faults, rock fragments and various degrees of weathering. Any structure involving rock requires the knowledge of deformability characteristics of intact rock and the rock mass containing discontinuities. There are many methods available for the determination of modulus of rock mass in the field. However, these methods have many limitations. The present paper is based on the deformability characteristics of garnetiferous quartzo-feldspathic gneiss rock mass in southern part of India. |
