You must see all the geotechnical parameters, such as hardness of the rock, type of structures, filling of the fractures, type of rock, degree of alteration, quantity of water that circulates through your base level, sedimentation structures, you must apply 3d tests to the testics. Strictly speaking, you must consider everything that can cause an accident or that gives ground.
