Support of Underground Excavations in Hard Rock
by Hoek, E., Kaiser, P. K., Bawden, W. F.
The safe and economical construction of tunnels, mines, and other subterranean works depends on the correct choice of support systems to ensure that the excavations are stable. These support systems should be matched to the characterstics of the rock mass and the excavation tech…
