Rock Slopes - Design, Excavation, Stabilization







PREFACE

This manual has been prepared by Golder Associates, Seattle,

Washington,

in conjunction with a series of Rock Slope Engineering

courses sponsored by the Federal Highway Administra-

tion.

The manual is based on a book entitled “Rock Slope Engineering”

authored by Dr. Evert Hoek and Dr. John Bray. A third edition

of this book has been published in 1981.

The book has been

modified for these courses by expanding the chapter on Blasting

and preparing new chapters on Sloe Stabilizalton, Movement

Monitoring and Construction Contracts and Specifications. A

glossary of excavation terms,

I i st ings and documentation of two

slope stability programs and a data collection manual have been

added as appendices. The entire text has been edited to make it

applicable to transportation engineering.
