Calculation of Hoek-Brown Parameters

If rock mass is descripted using GSI (Geological Strength Index) is known then it is possible to let the program to determine the H-B parameters as follows:

where:

GSI

-

Geological Strength Index

D

-

damage coefficient of rock mass

mi

-

strength material constant of the intact rock for peak conditions

Values of damage coefficient D for rock slope

Description of rock mass

Suggested value of coefficient D

Small scale blasting in engineering slopes results in modest rock mass damage, particularly if controlled blasting is used. However, stress relief results in some disturbance.

(Good blasting).

0.7

Small scale blasting in engineering slopes results in modest rock mass damage, particularly if controlled blasting is used. However, stress relief results in some disturbance.

(Poor blasting).

1

Very large open-pit mine slopes significant disturbance due to heavy production blasting and due to stress relief from overburden removal.

(Production blasting).

In some softer rocks excavation can be carried out by ripping and dozing and the degree of damage to the slope is less.

(Mechanical excavation).
