Aspo Pillar Stability Experiment

Andersson, C. 2003. Aspo Pillar Stability Experiment. Feasibility Study. SKB, IPR-03-01. Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company, Stockholm. [Pg.394]

Major objectives of the Aspo Pillar Stability Experiment are to demonstrate the capability to predict spalling in a fractured rock mass and to investigate the effect of the backfill (confining pressure) on the rock mass response. The FRACOD modelling aims to predict properly the fracturing process and the development of AE events during the planned sequences of excavation-confinement-heating. [Pg.428]

THE ON-GOING PILLAR STABILITY EXPERIMENT AT THE ASPO HARD ROCK... [Pg.389]

The Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) is investigating the stability of a pillar between two closely located deposition holes at Aspo Hard Rock Laboratory (AHRL). This in-situ experiment is called Aspb Pillar Stability Experiment (APSE) and it is described more detailed elsewhere in this proceeding see APSE by Andersson et al. (2(X).1). [Pg.425]
