What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills in granite rock mass assessment, RMR and Q system application, and in-situ stress evaluation in tectonically active mountain areas. Master failure mode analysis, initial drill-and-blast tunnel support design using empirical charts and basic tools, plus monitoring and adaptive strategies for secure underground operations.
