This book presents the select proceedings of the 26th Annual Symposium organized by the Sydney Chapter of the Australian Geomechanics Society (AGS). The symposium brought together key stakeholders of the Australian geological and geotechnical community. This book showcases state-of-the-art practices, new research findings, and case histories that demonstrate reliability-based designs and assessments. The papers on reliability-based approaches cover various aspects of site investigations, interpretations, designs, specialized testing, and technologies. This book presents recent innovations, trends, and concerns, as well as practical challenges encountered, and solutions adopted in the field. This volume will be a useful guide to those in academia and industry working in the fields of geotechnical engineering.

Geotechnical Engineering for Mine Waste Storage Facilities


Free Download Geotechnical Engineering for Mine Waste Storage Facilities By Geoffrey E. Blight
2010 | 652 Pages | ISBN: 0415468280 | PDF | 22 MB
The book is a comprehensive treatment of the application of geotechnical engineering to site selection, site exploration, design, operation and closure of mine waste storage facilities.The level and content are suitable as a technical source and reference for practising engineers engaged both in the design and operational management of mine waste storage facilities and for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students. The thirteen chapters follow the sequence of the life cycle of a waste storage facility (characterization, site selection, geotechnical exploration, environmental aspects, testing and compaction) and also consider the use of mine waste as a construction material.The text is liberally illustrated by both line drawings and photographs, and the theoretical passages are supported by typical test results, worked examples and carefully analysed case histories.
