A COMPOSITE NET FOR THE RAPID ANALYSIS OF ROCK SLOPE STABILITY

The composite net, a combination of a polar equal area net and the great circles of a Schmidt net, simplifies the rapid analysis of rock slope stability by Markland's method. It reduces the number of overlays necessary to one plain transparent sheet and reduces to one the number of rotations of the overlay during the graphical constructions.(a) /TRRL/
