254. D.H. L ~ s c h e r r e p o r t s some ~ d i f i c a t i o n s t h a t he has made to the Bieniawski classification I to suit all mining situations, whether open pit design or the deterruination of hhe cavsbillty of ore. A support guide for underground excavations with stresses less than 30MPa is presented. L.C. Wilson comments on the general applicability to gsomechsnics claimed by the author and suggests some alterations to the scheme of classification to improve this. M.J. Mountain suggests that the classi. faction be extended to take into account studies of unconfined rock slopes. P.J. Pells oonments on some groundwater aspects of t h e Bieniawskl scheme and proposes some alterations. F. Netterberg considers the author's paper to be a significant advance in dealing with Jointed rock, but feels certain =odlflcations to be necessary. These are concerned mainly with the need for greater consideration of the weaker, more weathered, near-surface rocks most frequently encountered in the Southern Hemisphere. The contribution from the Co~mLittee on Standardization of Core logging for Civil Engineering Purposes includes several critical con~nents concerned with the difference between description and classification, compressive strength, Joint spacing, seismic characteristics and input data form. b.A. Williams comments on the al~pllcability of the classification, especially with regard to design problems in founding dams on rock or in major excavations or in large scale siopes. In reply the author lists several revisions that have been n~de to the classification since the original paper was written. He then answers the discussions individually.

GB01DGY, V8, N3, OCT. 1974, I>213- 266. In the first part of this review, the author summarizes information on the significant genetic characteristics which appear to underlie the devlatlon of engineering behaviour of laterite materials from the expected propertles based upon conventional soll mechanics as developed for temperate-zone soils. The second part summarlz available information on the identification of significant geotechnlcal properties of various grades and genetic groups of laterlte materials for engineering purposes. The engineering behaviour of laterlte materials forms the substance of the third part of the paper. Autr
