Rock Mass Classification is the process of placing a rock mass into groups or classes on defined relationships Bieniawski 1989 and assigning a unique description or number to
ROCK MASS CLASSIFICATION – A CRITICAL EVALUATION
Rock mass classification systems have gained wide attention and are frequently used in rock engineering and design However all of these systems have limitations but applied appropriately and with care they are valuable tools The paper describes the history of the Q system that was introduced in 1974 and its later development

Rock Mass Characterization Geoengineer org
Rock mass is a matrix consisting of rock material and rock discontinuities Its characterization and classification aim to determine the rock mass characteristics by assigning values to a set of rock parameters The behavior of intact rock material can be determined by continuum mechanics but rock masses are usually highly fractured
The RMR Rock Mass Rating system
Short on the RMR Rock Mass Rating system This engineering classification system which was developed by Bieniawski in 1973 utilises the following six rock mass parameters 1 Uniaxial compressive strength of intact rock material 2 Rock quality designation RQD 3 Spacing of discontinuities 4 Condition of discontinuities given as

use of a rock mass classification scheme can be of considerable benefit At its simplest this may involve using the classification scheme as a check list to ensure that all relevant information has been considered At the other end of the spectrum one or more rock mass classification schemes can be used to build up a picture of the composition and
Slope Stabilization Methods Classification and
Grouting is a technique of injecting a fluid grout into the rock mass to replace the air or water present in its fissures and cracks The grout consists of a mixture of cement and water However sand clay rock fly ash and other similar materials can be used as a replacement to cement As a result the cost of stabilization work reduces especially where fissures and
Chapter 4 Engineering Classification of Rock Materials
rock mass if discontinuities are widely spaced or if the intact rock material is inherently weak or altered Dis continuities within a rock mass therefore reduce its strength and stability and reduce the energy required to excavate or erode it It is important to recognize that many rock properties interact under performance conditions A
