Rockfall Hazard Mitigation Methods. Participant Workbook. NHI Course No. 13219
The FWHA manual has been developed as a reference for State highway engineers for design, construction, and correction of rockfall problems. It has been developed in response to an increase in litigation cases due to rock instability where vehicles have been damaged or there has been injury or loss of life to vehicle occupants. In order to assess existing or potential rockfall problems, various investigations are described. They include the use of existing maps, air photos and reports, climatic data, field reconnaissance, and field monitoring. Maintenance history, traffic volumes, and alignment considerations that impact accident potential and risk must be assessed. Field geotechnical investigations include determination of rock type, structural geology, discontinuity roughness and evidence of past instability. Water chemistry tests determine if corrosion of metal components will be a problem. Field tests where rocks roll rock down or below rock slopes assist in rock protection design. A review of investigation programs is presented.
