Analogies between nuclear and conventional excavations are developed from a tabulation of data from 153 mine, quarry, roadway, and dam excavations. The following factors were used as the basis for tabulation of conventional excavation data: purpose, location, precipitation, temperature, ground water level, lithology, mass strength, structural pattern, slope plan, slope profile, depth of excavation, slope height, average inclination, and stability. It was found that average slope inclination tends to be greatest for hard material and for material lacking a well-developed structure, and that inclination tends to de- crease with increasing slope height for excavated slopes reported to be stable. The authors conclude that good analogies are to be found in shape, slope height, depth of excavation, and slope inclination. Loadings of waste material at the rim of some open pit mines may be analogous to ejecta on the lips of nuclear craters. Rubble zones found in some open pit mines may be analogous to the fallback zones of nuclear craters. Differences between preshot and postshot characteristics of cratered media must be appreciated in evaluating analogies between features of conventional excavations and preshot features of nuclear excavation sites. Brief descriptions of 21 selected excavations are presented in Appendix A. The results of this study serve as an aid to judgment of nuclear crater slope stability. Potential subjects for further study are identified.

Rock Mechanics for Natural Resources and Infrastructure Development contains the proceedings of the 14th ISRM International Congress (ISRM 2019, Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil, 13-19 September 2019). Starting in 1966 in Lisbon, Portugal, the International Society for Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering (ISRM) holds its Congress every four years. At this 14th occasion, the Congress brings together researchers, professors, engineers and students around contemporary themes relevant to rock mechanics and rock engineering. Rock Mechanics for Natural Resources and Infrastructure Development contains 7 Keynote Lectures and 449 papers in ten chapters, covering topics ranging from fundamental research in rock mechanics, laboratory and experimental field studies, and petroleum, mining and civil engineering applications. Also included are the prestigious ISRM Award Lectures, the Leopold Muller Award Lecture by professor Peter K. Kaiser. and the Manuel Rocha Award Lecture by Dr. Quinghua Lei. Rock Mechanics for Natural Resources and Infrastructure Development is a must-read for academics, engineers and students involved in rock mechanics and engineering. Proceedings in Earth and geosciences - Volume 6 The ‘Proceedings in Earth and geosciences’ series contains proceedings of peer-reviewed international conferences dealing in earth and geosciences. The main topics covered by the series include: geotechnical engineering, underground construction, mining, rock mechanics, soil mechanics and hydrogeology.
