Hi, What file formats does the software accept. It would be a good idea to have a video that clearly shows a QUICK START, additionally, what software is incooperated in the rugged tablet. Can the geological mapping be done using the tablet independently?
Awesome video. I am an MSHA Blue Card holder in the US. I’ve worked my way up from a temp- to crusher, to mine operations (production mining) to Leadman, Shift supervisor, and now training supervisor. This is a good video to give great information to the 4 crews!
Great video. It was a pleasure working with your team Neil. The Hexagon team has learned a lot from your company. It is always good to work with a professional who understands monitoring technology and geotechnical knowledge.
Neil, how are you estimating the failure mass or volume in Slide3D. I am only able to get the weight or volume only on slice to slice basis in the slip column. Thanks
The software tells you the volume/weight of the lowest FoS slip surfaces in the report. Slip surface volumes for other surfaces can be queried. Ask for support from Rocscience if you can't find it
Awesome, i wonder to know the relation between the srf (strength reduction factor) with displacement? Why when the srf increase the displacement is increase too? Can we validate the model with the actual displacement in the field? And hiw to do it? Thanks..
You draw a line tracing the fault, and that creates your orientation (line-trace) that looks a little like a triangle in the video. The trace is 3D and can be exported into various CAD files (DXF, etc), or CSV with X, Y ,Z, Dip, DipDir.
Excellent work and in depth review of power of realistic geotechnical modelling. Real time monitoring combined with geotechnical modelling shows the power of developing TARP and risk management.
