... ABSTRACT A methodology is presented for the calculation of the load carrying capacity of a 2D symmetric roof rock wedge within a confining surrounding stress field, taking into account the progressive nature of yield on the wedge joints. A two stage joint relaxation procedure is employed...

... types of rock-fall (plane-slide, toppling, wedge, ) which potentially could occur on the slopes overhanging the road and the village. Trajectories, distances and probability of rock-falls were calculated and mapped for each slope-site which displayed a high-rate in generating rock-falls. The results...

... Abstract The usual way to carry out rock slope stability analyses is: to make a rock mass discontinuity pole counting to identify the predominant directions of rock discontinuities; with strength data for the discontinuities, to carry on plane, wedge and toppling failure analyses...
