| Program description: |
RocData is a versatile toolkit for the analysis of rock and soil strength data, and the
determination of strength envelopes and other physical parameters. RocData now includes
RocProp, a database of intact rock properties which runs as a standalone application.
RocData can be used to determine the parameters of linear and non-linear strength
envelopes for rock and soil, based on the analysis of triaxial or direct shear strength data.
RocData utilizes four of the most widely used strength models in geotechnical engineering -
Generalized Hoek-Brown, Mohr-Coulomb, Barton-Bandis and Power Curve.
Failure envelopes are plotted in both shear-normal and principal stress space. Shear-normal
stress envelopes generated by RocData can be applied to problems such as limit equilibrium
analysis of slope stability, while the principal stress envelopes can be used for modeling the
behaviour of underground excavations. RocData is a highly interactive program that allows
users to easily test different strength parameters and observe how they impact a failure
envelope, giving users a better understanding of material strength.
Material strength properties determined by RocData can be used as input for numerical
analysis programs such as Phase2 (finite element stress analysis and support design for
excavations) and Slide (limit equilibrium slope stability analysis).
