Geological Strength Index Relationships with the Q-System and Q-Slope
Sustainability, 2023 The Q-system and Q-slope are empirical methods developed for classifying and assessing rock masses for tunneling, underground mining, and rock slope engineering. Both methods have been used extensively to guide appropriate ground support design for underground excavations and stable angles for rock slopes.
