Description
Rock netting systems are a common remedial solution to safeguard against the impact of rock slope failure and progressive degradation. This guide provides a standardised ´whole life’ approach to help asset owners develop and refine examination processes through detailed guidance on how to monitor and maintain systems. The design and specification of rock netting systems can be complex and requires both an understanding of the intact rock, discontinuities and rock mass, as well as a practical understanding of the installed behaviour of the rock netting system to rockfall and the environment it is installed in. This guide provides details on the netting components and issues of installation so that contractors better install these systems.
