App. 2401 et seq. This work was sponsored by the Defense Nuclear Agency. To represent block-liner interaction in hard, jointed rock the Goodman-Shi key block theory was extended to 3-D. This work was synthesized with dynamic, nonlinear finite element in order to capitalize on the advantages with the latter affords in modeling geometry of the liner and constitutive properties of rock between joints. Under this project, synthesis was completed in 2-D and was nearly completed in 3-D. to supplement the finite element models, a dynamic equilibrium model of key blocks was developed which utilized the Kirsh solution for stress distribution around an opening; this model is suitable for design, and, if properly developed, can be regarded as the analog in jointed rock of Hendron-Aiyer. The report describes analysis of a.45 degree y-Intersection which was designed by SRI International. Block theory is a geometrically based set of analyses that determine where potentially dangerous blocks can exist in a geological material intersected by variously oriented discontinuities in three dimensions. It applies ideally to hard, blocky rock in which blocks of various sizes may be potential sources of load and hazard in an excavation or foundation. More
