    Planar Discontinuity Check2

    Uploaded by

    Kam Lau
    This document summarizes the design of a rock socket against planar discontinuity failure for a 250mm diameter socket at -29mPD. It includes soil and rock parameters, calculations of forces and resistances for various dip angles of the discontinuity, and determines that a 1.1m long rock socket is required to achieve the target ultimate resistance of 3000kN/m. The ultimate resistance is plotted against dip angle, showing it decreases with increasing dip angle.
