The geological strength index: applications and limitations
TL;DR: The geological strength index (GSI) is a system of rock-mass characterization that has been developed in engineering rock mechanics to meet the need for reliable input data, particularly those related to rock mass properties required as inputs into numerical analysis or closed form solutions for designing tunnels, slopes or foundations in rocks as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation and engineering properties of tectonically undisturbed but lithologically varied sedimentary rock masses
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of the geological strength index (GSI) for the characterisation of tectonically undisturbed sedimentary rocks is discussed, and two GSI charts are proposed for estimating the mechanical properties of these masses: one mainly for tunnels; and the second for surface excavations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisotropic behaviour of stratified rock masses in tunnelling
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated tunnel excavation through stratified rock masses from the engineering geological behaviour to the rock mass properties quantification and finally to the study of tunnel response, based on numerical analyses results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variability of the engineering properties of rock masses quantified by the geological strength index: the case of ophiolites with special emphasis on tunnelling
TL;DR: In this paper, a quantitative description of the rock masses within an ophiolitic complex including types with large variability due to their range of petrography, tectonic deformation and alteration is presented.
Geological Strength Index (GSI). A characterization tool for assessing engineering properties for rock masses
TL;DR: The Geological Strength Index (GSI) as mentioned in this paper is a system of rock mass characterization that has been developed in engineering rock mechanics to meet the need for reliable input data related to rock mass properties required as input for numerical analysis or closed-form solutions for designing tunnels, slopes, or foundations in rocks.
