The effect of rock classes on the relation between uniaxial compressive strength and point load index

Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, 2009
Uniaxial compressive strength and point load tests were carried out on 17 igneous, 16 metamorphic and 19 sedimentary rocks and the values correlated with their Is values. The influence of the different rock type was investigated using regression analysis and the derived equations were statistically tested.

Influence of orthoclase phenocrysts on point load strength of granitic rocks [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Geology, 2012
The point load index test involves loading cylindrical, block or irregular rock samples between two conical platens until sample failure. The point load strength index (I-s) determined using failure load and sample dimension is widely and variously used ...

Point-load strength: An index for classification of rock material

Bulletin of the International Association of Engineering Geology, 1991
Point-load strength (Is) as a measure for the determination of rock strength and for estimating uniaxial (unconfined) compressive strength (UCS) are described and both put together and used for rock strength classification of brittle and hard rocks. The estimated point-load strength values of specimens of varying sizes and also the values corrected to ...

Use of the point load index in estimation of the strength rating for the RMR system

Journal of African Earth Sciences, 2015
Abstract The Rock Mass Rating (RMR) system is a worldwide reference for design applications involving estimation of rock mass properties and tunnel support. In the RMR system, Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) is an important input parameter to determine the strength rating of intact rock. In practice, there are some difficulties in determining the
