Optimal System Design for Instrumented Slope Monitoring in Open Pit Mines
The importance of slope monitoring, and its place in the design and operation of an open-pit mine are presented. Some of the commoner techniques for slope monitoring are reviewed and the limitations and advantages of these compared. Two short case studies are presented; the first illustrates the imp...

| description | The importance of slope monitoring, and its place in the design and operation of an open-pit mine are presented. Some of the commoner techniques for slope monitoring are reviewed and the limitations and advantages of these compared. Two short case studies are presented; the first illustrates the importance of fully understanding potential failure mechanisms within a slope before designing and installing a monitoring system; the second serves to illustrate a key difference between two types of monitoring system currently in use. |
