RocSupport 2.0Update History

Version 3.007

1. Composite support systems made up of more than one of bolts/shotcrete/steel sets/custom support types was using the average strain to failure of the different support types. This resulted in lower factors of safety when adding certain support, for example adding bolts to steel sets. This has now been changed so that the maximum strain to failure is used. This gives more realistic behavior.
2. Improved printing.

Version 3.006

1. In probabilistic mode,the mean ground reaction curve was not being computed correctly for Hoek-Brown materials with modulus being computed from strength.
2. Poisson ratio was not being read correctly from the data file.
3. In probabilistic mode, the extents of the ground reaction curve were not being computed correctly.

Version 3.005

1. Now supports multiple HASPHL locks on the same USB hub.

Version 3.004

1. Added the new Hoek-Diederichs modulus estimation method.
2. Updated documentation.
3. Fixed a memory utilization problem in the histogram plots.
4. In a probabilistic analysis using the Carranza-Torres solution method, you now have the option to use the GHB strength criteria to estimate the modulus. This is instead of defining modulus as a random variable.

Version 3.003

1. New Hasp-HL hardlock support. Removed support for old beige hardlocks.

Version 3.002

1. Added Critical Pressure to Analysis Results section in Infoviewer.
2. For Carranza-Torres probabilistic analysis the program now computes distributions of Compressive Strength of Rock Mass and Hoek-Brown parameters mb, s, a if they we not directly entered by user. They can now be used for generating custom plot variables.

Version 3.001

1. Release of new version of RocSupport.
