From joint data to slopes and tunnels

Five tools for jointed rock that work together: read the joints, rate the rock mass, then check slopes and tunnels — from quick kinematic screening to continuum and distinct element models.

Your models stay on your computer: nothing is uploaded.

Tools

Each tool opens in its own page. Start from your data and go as far as the job needs.

Step 1

Joints and rock mass

Joint sets on the stereonet; rock mass strength from GSI.

Step 2

Slopes

Kinematic screening and block factor of safety, then strength reduction on a continuum.

Step 3

Tunnels

Wedges, then continuum or distinct element models of the excavation.
