Determination of geological strength index of jointed rock mass based on image processing
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017 The geological strength index (GSI) system, widely used for the design and practice of mining process, is a unique rock mass classification system related to the rock mass strength and deformation parameters based on the generalized Hoek-Brown and Mohr ...

Application of geological strength index for characterization of weathering-induced failures [PDF]
Građevinar, 2018 This study investigates weathering induced failures of the heterogeneous fissile rock mass consisting of sandstone and shale. Discontinuity data was collected and the geological strength index (GSI) value was determined immediately after excavation based

EQUIVALENT GEOLOGICAL STRENGTH INDEX (GSI) APPROACH WITH APPLICATION TO ROCK MASS SLOPE STABILITY
Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik, 2022 A considerable amount of slope stability analysis has been observed in jointed rock masses in which the GSI (Geological Strength Index) estimated at the outcropping level is considered input data to define the rock mass strength.
