There is the mathematical rock mass deformability model as a base for foundation engineering a concrete arch dam and the physical rock slope model which was tested by loading until failure and the results were compared with the calculation procedure. In the first example the correlation is established between the static and the analogous dynamic in situ investigations for creating the mathematical rock mass deformability model. In the second example there is application of the analogous materials for the discontinuity shearing simulation on the physical slope model. The results of the geotechnical in situ investigations and laboratory testing carried out in the Institute for Development of Water Resources "Jaroslav Cerni" in Belgrade were used for making the models. %K analogous model %K rock mass deformability %K deformation modulus %K rock slopemodel %K stress %K shear displacement %K loading %U http://www.doiserbia.nb.rs/img/doi/0354-4605/2011/0354-46051103395A.pdf
