Accurate measurement of in situ stress using surface-drilled deep boreholes is a challenge in high stress regimes in which both horizontal stresses exceed the vertical stress. For such stress regimes core damage and core disking is often observed and Accurate measurement of in situ stress using...

Abstract: When the stress-induced risks to a projects warrant it, in situ stress must be measured. However, as the stress-induced risks increase, i.e.. the stress magnitudes approach the rock mass strength, the confidence in commonly used stress measurement techniques decrease. The design of...
