Water in Fractured Rock: Why a "zero" piezometer reading doesn't mean a safe slope.
In fractured rock slopes, low piezometric readings can mask critical pressures due to connectivity and transient recharge.
Geometric adhesion and Catch Benches as a safety barrier: the impact of maintenance on risk reduction.
The loss of geometric grip on catch benches compromises a critical safety barrier and transforms cumulative degradation into a risk…
