Design Optimization of Safety Benches for Surface Quarries through Rockfall Testing and Evaluation
The research presented in this thesis results from efforts to evaluate current design methodologies for safety benches in surface aggregate quarries. Proper bench design is important for preventing rockfall related accidents and injuries without wasting the reserves held in the benches. An in dep...
