The Working Group "Standardization of Geophysical Methods for Rock Engineering"
Co-ordinator: Toru Takahashi (Japan)

The Workong Group made the draft on "Suggested Methods for Land Geophysics in Rock Engineering.
This draft had been approved by the ISRM Commission on Application of Geophysics to Rock Engineering, and also had been approved by ISRM Vice-President for Asia before ISRM 2003 Council Meeting on 7th September 2003. Therefore, this suggested methods will be published as one of the ISRM Suggested Methods.


The contents of the Suggested Methods are as follows:
1. Introduction
2. Seismic Refraction
3. Shallow Seismic Reflection
4. Electrical
5. Electromagnetic
6. Ground Penetration Radar
7. Gravity
8. Radiometric
