ANALYSIS OF STRENGTH FEATURES OF DISCONTINUOUS JOINTED ROCKMASS AND ITS APPLICATION TO LOCK SLOPE
船闸边坡断续节理岩体强度特性分析

The formulae for initial fracture and coalescence strength of discontinuous jointed rockmass under different coalescence modes are set up according to the coalescence mechanism obtained from simulation experiments. The results obtained from the formulae are basically in consistent with those obtained from experiments. The conclusions are of both theoretical and practical significance to realize the strength features of discontinuous jointed rockmass.
