Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 This standard covers the procedure for determining the class of rock mass based on geomechanics classification system, which is also called the Rock Mass Rating (RMR) system. The classification can be used for estimating the unsupported span, the stand-up time and the support pressures of an underground opening. It can also be used for selecting a method of excavation and permanent support system. Further, cohesion, angle of internal friction and elastic modulus of the rock mass can be estimated. Modified RMR can also be used for predicting the ground conditions for tunnelling.
