Geological strength index-slope: an adaptation of the geological strength index system for use in the rock slope stability assessment
Abstract The Geological Strength Index (GSI) system is the basis of parameters used in the Hoek-Brown failure criterion for rock mass strength estimation. The author tested this system and here suggests a modified GSI called Geological Strength Index-slope (GSIslope). The modified system combines tw...
