520    Rock mass classification methods are commonly used at the 
       preliminary design stages of a construction project when 
       there is very little information. It forms the bases for 
       design and estimation of the required amount and type of 
       rock support and groundwater control measures. 
       Encompassing nearly all aspects of rock mass 
       classifications in detail, Civil Engineering Rock Mass 
       Classification: Tunnelling, Foundations and Landsides 
       provides construction engineers and managers with 
       extensive practical knowledge which is time-tested in the 
       projects in Himalaya and other parts of the world in 
       complex geological conditions. Rock mass classification is
       an essential element of feasibility studies for any near 
       surface construction project prior to any excavation or 
       disturbances made to earth. Written by an author team with
       over 50 years of experience in some of the most difficult 
       mining regions of the world, Civil Engineering Rock Mass 
       Classification: Tunnelling, Foundations and Landsides 
       provides construction engineers, construction managers and
       mining engineers with the tools and methods to gather 
       geotechnical data, either from rock cuts, drifts or core, 
       and process the information for subsequent analysis. The 
       goal is to use effective mapping techniques to obtain data
       can be used as input for any of the established rock 
       classification systems. The book covers all of the 
       commonly used classification methods including: Barton's Q
       and Q' systems, Bieniawski's RMR, Laubscher's MRMR and 
       Hoek's and GSI systems. With this book in hand, engineers 
       will be able to gather geotechnical data, either from rock
       cuts, drifts or core, and process the information for 
       subsequent analysis. Rich with international case studies 
       and worked out equations, the focus of the book is on the 
       practical gathering information for purposes of analysis 
       and design. Identify the most significant parameters 
       influencing the behaviour of a rock mass. Divide a 
       particular rock mass formulation into groups of similar 
       behaviour, rock mass classes of varying quality. Provide a
       basis of understanding the characteristics of each rock 
       mass class Relate the experience of rock conditions at one
       site to the conditions and experience encountered at 
       others Derive quantitative data and guidelines for 
       engineering design Provide common basis for communication 
       between engineers and geologists.
