Geotechnical Field Data and Analysis Report, July 1986-June 1987: Volume 1
The Geotechnical Field Data and Analysis Report (GFDAR) is prepared to provide a timely assessment of the geotechnical status of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP). During the period of shaft sinking and construction of the principal underground access and experimental areas, reporting was on a quarterly basis. Because geotechnical responses of existing underground facilities have slowed to nearly steady-state and excavation of the waste storage panels will take place more slowly and over an extended period, reporting in the coming years will be on an annual cycle. Volume I focuses on the performance of the various underground facilities including the three shafts, shaft stations, access drifts, test rooms, and waste storage areas. It provides a direct evaluation of the geotechnical aspects of performance in the context of the relevant design criteria. It provides projections of the future performance of these facilities. The results of stratigraphic mapping and the occurrence of gas and brine are also documented. The depth and breadth of analysis for the different underground facilities varies according to the types and quantities of data that are available, and the complexity of the recorded geotechnical responses. 45 figs., 15 tabs. (ERA citation 13:046370)
