Free mica grains in crushed rock aggregates
Enrichment of free mica (i.e. as monomineralic grains) in the fine fraction of crushed rock aggregates affects the quality of the aggregate end product. Granitoid rock from the Svecofennian Province were used as being representative of crushed rock aggregates commonly used for construction purposes. The results reveal a general trend of enrichment of mica for finer fractions. For the coarse gra...
متن کاملGrouting of Rock Masses
The grouting of rock used to be a quite empirical constructional technique aimed to improve somewhat the physical properties of the masses, which are actually part of the civil engineering project. Different "grouting schools" or "ways of thinking" did develop and a considerable number of recipes were dictated by "great old men" and enforced later on by regulations of any kind. Only in the last...
متن کاملProbabilistic design: The future of rock engineering
A brief background to the development of the rock engineering design process is given, showing that since the development of the science of mathematics, deterministic methods have been used to perform various calculations. The variability of rock properties and support characteristics have always been known. However, they were not explicitly used in design but compensated for by the use of a sa...
متن کاملAn Evaluation of Rock Integrity and Fault Reactivation in the Cap Rock and Reservoir Rock Due to Pressure Variations
Cap rocks are dams which can prevent the upward movement of hydrocarbons. They have disparities and weaknesses including discontinuities, crushed areas, and faults. Gas injection is an effective mechanism for oil recovery and pore pressure. With increasing pore pressure, normal stress is reduced, and the integrity of impermeable boundaries (cap rock, fault, etc.) becomes instable. A successful ...
متن کاملRock Masses as Construction Materials
A rock mass is a material quite different from other structural materials used in civil engineering. It is heterogeneous and quite often discontinuous, but is one of the materials in the earth's crust, which is most used in man's construction. Ideally, a rock mass is composed of a system of rock blocks and fragments separated by discontinuities forming a material in which all elements behave in...
