APPLICATION OF MODIFIED HOEK-BROWN TRANSITION RELATIONSHIPS FOR ASSESSING STRENGTH AND POST YIELD BEHAVIOUR AT BOTH ENDS OF THE ROCK COMPETENCE SCALE (2008)

In this paper several case examples are presented to illustrate the application of the high-end (spalling) and low-end (weak ground) transition Hoek-Brown relationships proposed by Carter, Diederichs and Carvalho, (2007) as a basis for better defining rock mass behaviour at the extreme ends of the rock competence scale.
