Three-dimensional rock mass documentation in conventional tunnelling using JointMetrix3D

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference paperpeer-review

Abstract

JointMetriX3D is a novel system that generates reproducible records of tunnel faces based on
metric 3D images. The photogrammetric approach allows measurements from the 3D images, such as positions, lengths, or areas, as well as orientations either by discontinuity surfaces or traces. From those data discontinuity spacing and frequency as well as stereograms are generated. The 3D images itself represent a reproducible record of the tunnel face preserving the information on the actual rock mass conditions allowing analyses also at a later time. Measurements can be taken at any required number and extent, even in regions
that are not accessible. The improved data serve as proof of the actual conditions but also as substantial information for the decision making on site.
