Q5 a) The discontinuity characteristic mostly dominates failure in the rock mass. Thus, the selection of stabilisation must be made based on the mode of instability. Answer the following question: a) Figure Q5(a) shows two types of failure modes in rock; rockfall and wedge failure. State the rock mass characteristic that contributes to these failures and propose a suitable stabilisation measure for both cases? UTM ITIVA M M &UTM&UTM (ii) B) It is a common practice to install shotcrete and wire mesh together. For an unstable slope face, why such practice is highly recommended. What is the purpose of wire mesh in shotcrete installation?
