Granites of Dublin, Ireland: uniaxial compression strength, point load index and correlation analysis

Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology
While the uniaxial compression strength ( UCS ) test is the gold standard for determining the UCS of rock for geotechnical and mining applications, empirical correlations between UCS and other test measurements such as point load index ( PLI )

Recommendation of Specimen Geometry in Determining Point Load Strength Index for Anisotropic Rocks

International Geomechanics Conference
ABSTRACT: The point load strength index (Is(50)) is the critical parameter in evaluating the mechanical response of rock. Due to its ease in specimen preparation, this index test becomes even more important for calculating the strength index of layered anisotropic rocks.

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
