Rockfall Hazard Rating System: Participant's Manual
The Rockfall Hazard Rating System (RHRS) is a process used in the management of rockfall sites adjacent to highways. The system is proactive by design, providing a rational way to make informed decisions on where and how to spend construction funds in order to reduce the risks associated with rockfall. This Participant's manual documents the components of the RHRS, the steps an agency should follow to implement the system, and discusses the level of commitment required. The benefits of implementation and the limitations of the system are also described. The manual serves as both a field guide and as a desk top reference for those who perform the slope ratings and those who use the resulting database in establishing rockfall remediation designs and construction priorities.
