Rocscience is pleased to announce a training course in Gaborone, Botswana, on applying the company's software suite to modelling and solving surface and underground mining excavation challenges. This four-day training course is designed for all experience levels and will be taught by world-class specialists.
Due to the wide variation in soil and rock mass behaviours, different software tools are required to model the numerous surface and underground excavations (and geotechnical structures) encountered in mining. The course will help participants use various Rocscience programs to solve routine open pits, earth-fill structures and underground mine excavations.
The course will start with fundamentals of soil and rock mass responses to excavation and loading. It will then introduce participants to various analysis methods and discuss each approach's advantages and limitations. Lastly, participants will learn pragmatic strategies for solving typical surface and underground mine excavation problems.
Since most open pit and underground mines have complex geometric and geologic layouts, the course will introduce practical, efficient 3D geotechnical modelling. Participants will learn how to complement their 2D models (which typically provide simplicity and low costs) with the power of 3D analysis.
The course will cover the capabilities and features of the following software: Dips, SWedge, UnWedge, Slide2, Slide3, RS2, and RS3.
Offer: Registrants who have Rocscience Maintenance+ plans get a 10% discount on the course fee.
