SF 9004 ROCK MECHANICS IN ENGINEERING PRACTICE L T P C
3 0 0 3
OBJECTIVE:
Students are expected to classify, understand stares-strain characteristics,
failure criteria, and influence of insitu stress in the stability of various
structures and various technique to improve the insitu strength of rocks.
UNIT I CLASSIFICATION OF ROCKS 9
Rocks of peninsular India and the Himalayas - Index properties and classification of
rock masses, competent and incompetent rock - value of RMR and ratings in field
estimations.
10
UNIT II STRENGTH CRITERIA OF ROCKS 9
Behaviour of rock under hydrostatic compression and deviatric loading - Models of
rock failure - planes of weakness and joint characteristics - joint testing, Mohr -
Coulomb failure criterion and tension cut-off. Hoek and Brown Strength criteria for
rocks with discontinuity sets.
UNIT III DESIGN ASPECTS IN ROCKS 10
Insitu stresses and their measurements, Hydraulic fracturing, flat jack, over coring
and under coring methods - stress around underground excavations - Design
aspects of openings in rocks - case studies.
UNIT IV SLOPE STABILITY OF ROCKS 9
Rock slopes - role of discontinuities in slop failure, slope analysis and factor of safety
- remedial measures for critical slopes - case studies.
UNIT V REINFORCEMENT OF ROCKS 8
Reinforcement of fractured and joined rocks - shotcreting, bolting, anchoring,
installation methods - case studies.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
