In the axial test, the core is loaded parallel to the longitudinal axis of the core, and this test is most comparable to a UCS test. The point load test allows the determination of the …
The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is an important parameter for rock mass classification and rock engineering designs. This study proposes a novel method …
The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is classified as one of the basic mechanical properties of rocks, which is widely used in mining and construction practice. For example, it allows...
Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is an essential mechanical parameter for any rock mass characterization, whereas the elastic properties of rocks help us understand the …
The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks is a vital geomechanical parameter widely used for rock mass classification, stability analysis, and engineering …
It can be found that the UCS average value is 76.07 MPa and standard deviation is 42.46 MPa. The DPLS average value is 4.03 MPa and standard deviation is 1.22 MPa. The APLS average value is 4.13 MPa …
This study evaluates estimation of UCS of rocks from several empirical equations. The study uses data of point load strength ( Is (50)), Schmidt rebound …
The UCS and uniaxial tensile strength (UTS) average values of four core samples obtained parallel and perpendicular to the main S2 are 51.8 MPa and 12.21 MPa versus 45.65 MPa and 12.45 MPa ...
This paper addresses the determination of the UCS by combining non-destructive or minimally invasive techniques. Results confirm that the assessment of …
The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks is an essential input parameter for engineering design in mining and civil engineering. This research …
