It may be assumed that the avalanche would have been many times larger, and that it might have reached the health care centre, if the supporting structures had not reduced the released snow volume by an order of magnitude.

This
explains the Jamison and Cook observation that the measured stresses were as large as the CFS
allowed. Note that the stress observations are from the interiors of the small blocks while the CFS
limitations just concern the block boundaries and joints within the blocks. These fracture (CFS)
limitations thus strongly affects the interiors of the small blocks.
