Review
December 1993 These volumes constitute an up-to-date and comprehensive work of reference concerning the relatively new field of rock mechanics. It brings together a body of knowledge not available anywhere else in one coherent publication. The five volumes consist of state-of-the-art articles written by the founding experts in rock mechanics and rock engineering, together with contributions from those members of the community currently exploring the latest theoretical and practical engineering design and construction methods. The five volumes each have a theme: Fundamentals; Analysis and design, Rock testing and site characterisation; Excavation, support and monitoring; and Surface and underground project case histories. There is a cumulative subject index. -- Tunnels & Tunnelling
