Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical EngineeringThe water drop penetration time (WDPT) test consists of placing water drops on a material's surface in order to evaluate how long it takes to penetrate the pores. It is used to evaluate the hydrophobicity of materials. This study aims at investigating in
