Description
Summary:The main idea of the article is the problem of choosing the optimal complex of geophysical methods to study the coverage and localization of cavity in the rock massif. The necessity of using ground penetration radar (GPR) work on the facing stone deposits in the process of massif research has been identified and justified. Based on the study, the author proposed the use of two types of antennas with the aim of penetrating to different depths. The presented conclusions prove that using georadar for study of fracturing in a facing stone deposit could be effective.
