Hydrogeological and geotechnical rock property characterization from geophysics [PDF]
Boreholes drilled at Sellafield penetrated a variety of rock units. Core samples and wireline logs indicate that rock mass properties and in situ fluid properties vary from one unit to another, but that properties are relatively uniform for each unit ...

Probabilistic Rock Mass Rating Estimation Using Electrical Resistivity
Understanding exact rock conditions has a significant impact on the success of tunnel construction. Various methods such as Q-systems and rock mass rating (RMR) have been used to estimate the condition of jointed rock mass in fields. However, the evaluation of rock mass characteristics can diverge because of the subjective views of observers.
