that rock strength is affected by the SIZE of the specimen tested. This can be explained simply as being the result of the many flaws found in rock in the form of fissures, pores, cleavage, bedding planes, foliation, etc. The larger
Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is a key physical test relevant to iron ore crusher design and rock geomechanics for mining. Tests are typically performed on intact lengths of NQ, HQ, or PQ diamond drill core and record the ...
data set, the correlation between UCS and ultrasonic velocity travel time was expressed as UCS = 217.2 e-0.016(tp) for granite and UCS = 1110.6 e -0.037(tp) for schist and the coefficient of determination (R 2 ) value for both granite and schist is 0.93.

Determination of the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks is an important task for rock and geotechnical engineering applications.Direct measurement is expensive, time consuming and even infeasible in some circumstances due to the difficulty in obtaining …
Rock strength has been found to be size dependent because of the cracks and fissures that are often present in the material. This is illustrated from the results of tests on three rock types in Fig. 8.2. The size dependancy is 8.2 t ...

Estimating compressive strength General rock failure criterion can be reduced to a few parameters dependent on lithology (m) and the uniaxial compressive strength (C 0).Lithology is commonly derived during log analysis, so m may be estimated (Table 1)..
2017/03/17· This test method specifies the apparatus, instrumentation, and procedures for determining unconfined compressive strength of intact rock core specimens. This procedure is identical to ASTM D 2938 except that the cores are tested after cutting without grinding, and neoprene caps are used on the specimen ends. Unconfined Compressive Strength …

Rock engineers have commonly used the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and Brazilian tensile strength (BTS) of rock for designing surface and underground structures. Determining these rock strengths is time-consuming and
320.] reported that mining engineers request the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) more often than any other rock property. However, standards set for specimen preparation are very demanding. Therefore it is quite di†cult and sometimes impossible to
strength is scale dependent and varies with the volume of rock under consideration. The modes of failure of intact rock are multiple. Rock …
The strength of jointed rock masses is notoriously difficult to assess. Laboratory tests on core samples are not representative of a rock mass of significantly larger volume. On the other hand, in situ strength testing of the rock
of rock strength due to cyclic loading greatly depends on types of rock [4-5]. Haimson [4] stated that strength deterioration for 100 numbers of cycles was within the range of 35% to 85% of static strength. Lee et al. [6] to 82%et al ...
