Guidelines for Assessment of Geotechnical Safety and Stability for Post Mining Landforms will very soon be published by ACARP and available for download from acarp.com.au. The download will include the Project C34028 Report which provides supporting details and discussion. Key essentials include processes for evaluating geotechnical model uncertainty and consequence category, which provide justification for determining appropriate design acceptance criteria. Stability assessment may be undertaken by observational or analytical approaches, a choice to be made and justified by the geotechnical practitioner.
John, I believe you will be presenting some of that info. in the upcoming Earthworks course in July in Sunshine Coast.
Well done John Simmons! This is important practical guidance, looking forward to reading the final document.
Good job John
