Abstract

The Rock Mass Rating (RMRb) and Geological Strength Index (GSI) are widely employed in geotechnical engineering practice. An attempt has been made to analyze the RMRb and GSI using in situ data corresponding to sandstone rock collected from different outcrops in Markundi Hill along SH-5, Chopan, Sonbhadra. RMR and GSI have been analyzed in order to compare them with the results of the analysis conducted in this study. The Markundi Sandstone is categorized Poor rock mass and Fair rock mass at the locations from the data collected on the basis of RMRb. Finally, the best (most suitable) applied math relations between RMRb and GSI are shown and they are accustomed establish general correlations. Hoek (2013) generalized equation show the best regression relationship between RMRb and GSI for Markundi Sandstone rock.
