Features: The book consists of six chapters. After clarifying the basic concepts of block geometry, it elaborates in detail on finite blocks in rock masses, movable blocks in rock masses, and the principles and methods for stability evaluation of movable blocks. After analyzing the structure of layered rock masses, it provides a detailed discussion on the stability of layered rock masses around tunnels, the stability of layered rock mass slopes, and the general patterns of movement in layered rock masses, along with specific case studies. This book is suitable for researchers and designers in geotechnical engineering, as well as for reference by students and teachers in related fields.
