Rock Slopes

The monitoring of rock slopes

J. A. Franklin* & P. E. Denton{dagger}

* Rock Mechanics Ltd., Bracknell, Berks.
{dagger} Engineering Laboratory Equipment Ltd., Apsley, Hemel Hempstead, Herts.

This paper reviews some principles of rock slope monitoring and describes equipment that can be used for this purpose. In attempting a broad review of techniques it is impossible to give full details relevant to each item of equipment, or to supplement the text with case histories. This information can be found in the bibliography, in the tables that supplement the text, or by consulting instrumentation companies such as those listed in Appendix I.
