Fit For Purpose

Slope stability monitoring in open cut mining is increasingly based on the use of a variety of different sensors and associated analytics, each capable of providing part of the understanding required to manage complex geotechnical environments. Designing an integrated monitoring system that is both attainable and fit for purpose can therefore be particularly challenging. In this paper, a systems engineering approach based on a novel methodology is presented to design the slope monitoring system. The methodology uses the rock engineering systems (RES) approach to system decomposition for geotechnical engineering problems, to determine the critical rock mass behaviours requiring monitoring. It follows this with the application of the system theoretic process analysis (STPA) approach, to design the control system for the monitoring system and identify and mitigate sub-optimal configurations. We demonstrate that the approach is practical to implement and supports transparent and defensible decision making for designing and implementing slope monitor systems. We apply the method to the design of a monitoring system for an Australian coal mine and demonstrate how the approach can facilitate the identification and design of new sensing modalities.

Abnormal Phenomenon

The number of the high slope along the highway is much more, except this, the geological conditions is complex. To ensure the driving safety and the normal operation of the highway, it’s meaningful to monitor the deformation trend of high slope and discover abnormal phenomenon timely and treat it. The paper taking freeway high slope monitoring project as an example, study the purpose of high slope stability monitoring, the monitoring method and the setting of the monitoring net. It also analysis the monitoring results. The results show that the monitoring spot displacements of the slope are small and there is no symptom to occur geological disaster such as landslide, slump, avalanches and so on. The slope is basically stable. The monitoring result has verified the feasibility and the effectiveness of the monitoring scheme. Expecting this can offer reference and gather experience for similar projects
