Rock Fall Engineering
Rock Fall Engineering describes first, the theoretical background to rock fall behaviour in terms of the impact and trajectory phases of rock falls, and second, how this information is applied to modelling of rock falls and the desing of ditches, fences and sheds. The theory of rock fall behaviour is verified by comparing the calculations with five carefully documented case studies.
