Uniaxial Compressive Strength of Antarctic Peninsula Rocks: Schmidt Hammer Rebound Test

Sains Malaysiana, 2017
The uniaxial compressive strength test is a destructive and time consuming test. A number of non-destructive methods using portable testing equipment are more applicable and easier to conduct. This paper presents the results of a systematic approach to determine the uniaxial compressive strength of rock material using the Schmidt hammer rebound test. A
