Abstract:

Proceedings of a specialty conference on Rock Engineering for Foundations and Slopes, held in University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado, August 15-18, 1976. Sponsored by the Geotechnical Engineering Division of ASCE and the Colorado Section of ASCE. Rock Engineering for Foundations and Slopes contains many papers covering a broad range of relevant issues in rock engineering. Topics include determining bedrock elevation by acoustic sounding technique, predicting deformations in formations, swelling rock, dewatering rock for construction, and mechanics of the frank slide. These proceedings will be of interest to both practitioners and researchers in the field of rock engineering.
