Abstract
The analysis of stress-strain conditions is based on a large number of influential
parameters of a rock mass that are very difficult to determine.
This paper includes analysis of a large amount of data derived from static and
dynamic methods for ground investigation, drill holes and on site measurements.
The methods used for investigation are particularly important since we tried to
exceed the deterministic approach to analysis, because it does not always allow
reliable information for adequate determination of input parameters; thus, the
paper advocates the probabilistic approach to analysis.
The subject and methodology used in the paper are also mainly related to practical
aspects, because final conclusions of investigations are obtained from analysis of a
large amount of field and laboratory data, with experiences gained during the
design process of hydrotechnical tunnels.
