A comparison of methods for measuring defect orientation from boreholes in weak rock

The identification and characterisation of defects within a rock mass is a valuable tool when analysing potential and pre-existing slope instability as well as when assessing the stability and support requirements for tunnelling and underground structures. A good knowledge of rock defect data is extremely important to enable…
