Preliminary characterization of fracturing at the site of the Chalk River Laboratories / by A. Piggott ... [et al.]. : En13-5/97-126E-PDF

"‘A three-dimensional conceptual model of fracture system geometry based on a uniform and isotropic distribution of disc-shaped fractures and a fractal relation between the frequency and dimension of the fractures is developed for the site of the Chalk River Laboratories of Atomic Energy of Canada Limited. The model is applied to site and outcrop scale fracture trace length data and is consistent with the data for trace lengths in the range of 1 to 1000 m. Probabilistic results derived from the model confirm he accuracy of the plotting and interpretation of the in situ data and illustrate the three-dimensional form of the estimated fracture system"--Abstract.
