摘要: This final report is the culmination of a major, multi-year effort, beginning in Oct. 2002, to develop and deploy the Tennessee Rockfall Management System (RMS) for U.S. Routes, State Routes and Interstate Highways throughout Middle and East Tennessee. The Tennessee RMS includes a Rockfall Hazard Rating System (RHRS) customized for Tennessee, a rockfall database, field tools and procedures for semi-automated digital data entry in the field, and integration with a GIS to facilitate management decisions. Capabilities of the RMS include built-in error checking, rapid easy updates and seamless downloads to desktop computers. In addition, the project included development of a complete Rockfall Inventory for 78 counties in Middle and East Tennessee, and the collection of all pertinent engineering and geologic data. The project was carried out by personnel from the University of Tennessee, Virginia Tech, and TDOTs Nashville office. Altogether, the equivalent of 124 person-weeks was spent doing the fieldwork, as well as 9 person-weeks spent surveying candidate sites using TRIMS. / NOTE: Final rept. / Supplementary Notes: Prepared in cooperation with Virginia Polytechnic Inst. and State Univ., Blacksburg.
