Predicting rock mass rating ahead of the tunnel face with Bayesian estimation

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The rock mass rating (RMR) system plays a crucial role in geomechanics assessments for tunnel projects. However, conventional methods combining empirical and geostatistical approaches often yield inaccuracies, particularly in areas with weak strata such ...

Empirical methods for determining shaft bearing capacity of semi-deep foundations socketed in rocks

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017
Semi-deep foundations socketed in rocks are considered to be a viable option for the foundations in the presence of heavy load imposed by high-rise structures, due to the low settlement and high bearing capacity.
