Unconfined compressive strength, compressional wave velocity and spatial attenuation, and porosity were obtained at the end of every 10 cycles. As a result of progression in frost cycles, the increase and decrease rates were determined at the end of every 10 cycles, and the relationships between them were obtained to predict the loss ratios of

Feb 09, 2006Siliceous cement is stronger than calcareous cemented sandstones. Pore water plays a significant role in the compressive strength and deformation characteristics of sandstone. It can reduce the unconfined compressive strength by 30 to 60%.Shale mineral content influences geotechnical properties; most important is the quartz-clay mineral ratio.

Based on the brittle failure theory, the ratio of compressive strength to tensile strength is taken as 8:1, but in practice the ratio is found to be 15:1 to 25:1 (Bell, 1983). Hendron (1968) recommends a tensile strength of 5% to 10% of uniaxial compression strength for most rock mechanics problems. 23.5.4 Behaviour of Rocks in Triaxial Compression

Bedrock unconfined compressive strength (UCS) is a key parameter in designing thegeosciences and building related projects comprising both the underground and surface rock structures. Determination of rock UCS using standard laboratory tests is a complicated, expensive, and time-consuming process, which requires fresh core specimens. However, preparing fresh cores is not always possible

2015/11/23Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of rocks is a crucial parameter in designing geotechnical structures. Owing to difficulties in obtaining proper samples for UCS test as well as the point that conducting UCS is relatively expensive, the use of indirect methods for UCS estimation has drawn considerable attentions.

Oct 30, 2008If you perform an unconfined compressive strength test you will get a maximum deviator stress for some failure criterion. That maximum deviator stress is the diameter of a Mohr's circle. So half of that value is some measure of shear strength for some measure of normal loading. Cohesion is the shear strength for a normal load of zero.
