Evaluating rock mass disturbance within open-pit excavations using seismic methods: A case study from the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station

Understanding rock strength is essential when undertaking major excavation projects, as accurate assessments ensure both safe and cost-effective engineered slopes. Balancing the cost-safety trade-off becomes more imperative during the construction of critical infrastructure such as nuclear power sta...
