Abstract

© IMCET 2022. All rights reserved.Numerical modeling methods are widely used in the design of rock structures. One of the most important parameters of the design in these tools is the Deformation Modulus (Em). Em varies depending on parameters such as depth, direction, stress, rock mass properties. Therefore, instead of using a fixed Em value in designs, using Em values that vary depending on depth, direction and/or stress will give more accurate results. It will be more correct to conclude the design with the safety factors obtained with these results.
