"""This book offers a wide variety of scholarly and applied approaches that can be used for stabilizing excavations in rock masses underground and surface. The author connects the theory with practice through numerous examples involving numerical modeling, laboratory testing, and in situ experimentations. These examples are mostly based on the author's wide-ranging experience worldwide on the subject. Rich in photographs and illustrations, the book offers educational and practical outcomes that can be used by the educators. The book gives an extensive coverage of the mechanisms involved during the rock mass - support interaction process, which are demonstrated through a wide variety of case histories. Also incorporated in the book are the examples from the rock reinforcement practices presented through detailed sketches and photographs. Researchers and practitioners can benefit from the book too as a valuable supplement to their work through a wide variety of numerical and in situ modeling exercises."" Ugur Ozbay, Professor at the Department of Mining Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines. Reviewed Feb 2018."
