Estimating Unconfined Compressive Strength of Sedimentary Rocks in United Arab Emirates from Point Load Strength Index
In this paper, three rock types including Sandstone, Mudstone, and Crystalline Gypsum were part of a laboratory study conducted to develop a dataset for predicting the unconfined compressive strength of UAE intact sedimentary rock specimens. Four hundred nineteen rock samples from various areas along the coastal region of the UAE were collected and tested for the development of this dataset and...
متن کاملCorrelation between Uniaxial Compressive Strength and Point Load Index for Salt-Range Rocks
Nine rock types including Sandstone, Limestone, Siltstone, Dolomite and Marl collected from six different rock formations of the Salt Range area of Pakistan were tested to evaluate the correlations between the uniaxial compressive strength and the corresponding values of the point load index. Two hundred rock cores were drilled and used for the uniaxial compressive strength and point load index...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of Schmidt hammer test procedures for prediction of rocks strength
Uniaxial compressive and Brazilian tensile strengths (UCS and BTS) of rocks are considered important properties in the design of most the geotechnical projects that interact with rock such as slope stability and underground excavation. Measuring UCS and BTS using standard laboratory tests are time consuming, tedious and expensive. Moreover, it requires a large number of well-prepared rock cores...
متن کاملA New Method for Forecasting Uniaxial Compressive Strength of Weak Rocks
The uniaxial compressive strength of weak rocks (UCSWR) is among the essential parameters involved for the design of underground excavations, surface and underground mines, foundations in/on rock masses, and oil wells as an input factor of some analytical and empirical methods such as RMR and RMI. The direct standard approaches are difficult, expensive, and time-consuming, especially with highl...
متن کاملUsing the Point Load Test to Determine the Uniaxial Compressive Strength of Coal Measure Rock
Point load testing is used to determine rock strength indexes in geotechnical practice. The point load test apparatus and procedure enables economical testing of core or lump rock samples in either a field or laboratory setting. In order to estimate uniaxial compressive strength, index-to-strength conversion factors are used. These factors have been proposed by various researchers and are depen...
