PREDICTION OF UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF ROCKS BY POINT LOAD STRENGTH INDEX [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Al-Azhar University Engineering Sector, 2019
The point load testing is widely used to determine rock strength indeces in geotechnicalpractices as a result to simplicity. The present study presents correlation equations betweenthe unconfined compressive strength (qu) and point load strength index Is(50) adopted fordifferent types of rocks.

Influence of stabilisers on the unconfined compressive strength of a fine soil [PDF]

open access: yesGeotechnical Research, 2020
In foundation engineering, weak subgrade soils are usually improved by adding several stabilisers to satisfy construction requirements, but the influence degree of each stabiliser on the strength of the stabilised soils is rarely studied. In this study, a series of unconfined compressive strength tests was conducted on a fine soil stabilised with ...

Unconfined compressive strength characteristics of stabilized peat

open access: yesScientific Research and Essays, 2011
Las columnas de turba estabilizadas profundas podrían considerarse como una base atractiva y económica para la construcción de terraplenes de carreteras en suelos de turba profundos. Sin embargo, la turba en sí es muy problemática y el fracaso en la formación de las columnas con la resistencia adecuada a menudo se atribuyó al tipo inadecuado y la dosis

Evaluation of resilient modulus and unconfined compressive strength of subgrade [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
Subgrade soil is the important material as the foundation for supporting the pavement layers and the repeated load of vehicle traffic. To characterize the stiffness and strength behavior of subgrade due to traffic loading in structural pavement design can be determined by resilient modulus and unconfined compressive strength test.

The Electrical Properties and Unconfined Compression Strength of Bottom Ash

open access: yesJournal of The Korean Society of Agricultural Engineers, 2014
The objective of this study is to find the electrical properties of Bottom ash from thermoelectric power plants in Korea. By using Parallel Plate Method, the electrical resistivity and dielectric constant were measured at the frequency from 20 Hz to 10 MHz.

The ϕ = 0 Analysis of Stability and Unconfined Compression Strength

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 1967
ABSTRACT The accuracy in determining the undrained strength of saturated cohesive soils and its sequence to the result of stability analysis are examined. As for the accuracy in determining the strength, the mechanical disturbance in the whole process from sampling to testing is found to have far greater influence than the effect of stress release in

PREDICTION OF UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF ROCKS: A REVIEW PAPER

open access: yesJurnal Teknologi, 2015
Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of rocks is a crucial parameter in designing geotechnical structures. Owing to difficulties in obtaining proper samples for UCS test as well as the point that conducting UCS is relatively expensive, the use of indirect methods for UCS estimation has drawn considerable attentions.

Predicting the Tensile and Unconfined Compressive Strength of MICP-Treated Sands

open access: yesJournal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering
Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation MICP has been studied over the last 20 years as a promising bio-mediated alternative to enhance soil mechanical performance. Multiple studies have investigated different MICP treatment techniques and their application to various coarse-grained soils.

DENSITY, TEMPERATURE AND THE UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF POLAR SNOW [PDF]

open access: yes, 1967
Abstract : The relationships between several empirical and theoretical methods of determining the unconfined compressive strength of polar snow from depth- density and temperature profiles are discussed and graphically compared. Two unconfined compressive strength equations are proposed for snow at -10 degrees C.
