Site Investigation and Field Observation See also: 821089 821156 SITE INVESTIGATION FOR TUNNELS. ROCK MECHANICS REVIEW West, G; Carter, P G; D ~ l e t o n , M J Int J Rock Mech Min Sci, V18, NS, Oct 1981, P345-367 The paper is a general guide to site investigation for bored and cut-and-cover turmels and associated shafts and portals constructed for sewers, aqueducts, transport and other services. It outlines the objectives of a site investigation for a tunnel and reviews the steps required in carrying out and reporting the investigation, the methods that may be used, and the considerations that must be borne in mlrd. Emphasis is placed on the importance of the full description of strata, good core recovery, the thorough examlr~tion of groundwater comditions, the value of in situ tests and trials, and the relevance of l~-evious use of the site. The value of a staged approach to the investigation, the need for flexible manag~nent, and the importance of full reporting of each stage of the work with full communication of results anl conclusions to all interested parties are also stressed.

TECHNICAL NOTE De Figueiredo, A F; Negro, A Geotechnlque, V~I, N3, Sept 1981, P427-430 The new sensing system uses an oscillator as sig~Bl source and this simplifies the reading method, since electrical cables can be avoided. This system has been used to measure settlements at the Tucurul Hydroelectric Station, Tocantins River, Brazil.

Publ New York: AIME, 1981 Site testing of excavated or mined spaces in stages is suggested as advantageous and these stages are outlined and discussed. Planning and drilling strategy are outlined. Borehole logging methods are discussed, and methods of testing weak and wet cover of tight bedrock are described. 821163 UNDERGROUND 'NINED TYPE" LBG STORAGE McCarthy, D F Proc 5th Rapid Excavation and Tunneling Conference, San Francisco, 3-7 May 1981, VI, I~6-98. Publ New York: AIME, 1981 The procedures for site testing are described: coring, field testing, lab testing and cavern design° Field testing was to determine in-place permeability. Lab tests were performed to determine (i) formation permeability, (2) porosity, (3) bulk density and (4) unconfined compressive strength.
