Abstract

The surface roughness of geological discontinuities plays an important role in
influencing the stability of rock masses. Several approaches can be adopted for its
determination. This paper presents a simple approach whereby two polynomial
approximations have been derived to correlate the peak friction angle, f peak of discontinuity
planes of fresh as well as slightly weathered schist bedrock with the Joint Roughness
Coefficient, JRC
