Structural engineering

A review of modern blasting techniques used in tunnelling, chamber excavations and lake-tap blasting.

The use of tiebacks has evolved from simple lateral support during construction or excavation, to an increased number of permanent installations.

Geotechnical Engineering treats the mechanics of soils and structures interacting with soils.

Presenting cutting-edge thinking in the fields of mine and mill tailings, and mine waste, these proceedings also discuss current and future issues facing the mining and environmental communities, including matters dealing with technical capabilities and developments, regulations, and environmental concerns.
