Quarterly Geotechnical Field Data Report

OSTI ID:6501108

The Quarterly Geotechnical Field Date Report (GFDR) presents information obtained from the geotechnical studies at the WIPP site underground facilities from March 16 through June 15, 1984, as well as all previous data collected from the geomechanical instruments. During this period, the geotechnical activities at the site included geologic mapping and inspection in the waste shaft, pressure cell and convergence point installation in the waste shaft, core drilling in the experimental area, installing new instruments in drifts and rooms, and monitoring previously installed geomechanical instruments in shafts, underground drifts, and test rooms. The data presented in this GFDR reflect the update of continuing measurements and monitoring. Also continuing in this report are preliminary geotechnical and structural analyses and interpretations of the data. DOE intends to provide all geotechnical and related information generated from WIPP underground activities to interested persons or groups in a timely manner. The GFDR is organized into two parts. The first, Geotechnical Field Data, presents in graphical form all the data collected since April 1982 from the geomechanical instruments. The second part, Evaluation and Analysis, presents preliminary interpretation and analyses of the data.
