Short on the Q-system - RockMass
www.rockmass.netShort on the Q-system . The Q-system for rock mass classification, developed at the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) in 1974, originally included a little more than 200 tunnel case histories, mainly from Scandinavia (Barton et al., 1974). In 1993 the system was updated to include more than 1000 cases (Grimstad and Barton, 1993).

www.rockmass.netIntact rock strength . The uniaxial compressive strength of a rock material constitutes the highest strength limit of the rock mass of which it forms a part. It is determined in accordance with the standard laboratory procedures. For the purpose of rock mass classification, the use of the well -known point load strength index can be useful as the
