202016 · The relation between the flexure strength and compressive strength depends on the type of coarse aggregate used, except in high strength concrete, because the properties of aggregate, especially its shape and surface texture, affect the ultimate strength in compression very much less than the strength in tension or cracking load in …
view more2015922 · The unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of rock is a basic parameter for the design of foundations resting on rock. However, it is often very difficult to retrieve intact rock core specimens for the UCS test due to mechanical breaking or natural fracturing of the rock core during the drilling process. In such cases, it becomes obligatory to …

Both Italian (NTC 2008) and European (EC8) Standards define different levels of knowledge according to the number of tests carried out on a building. They indicate a reduced value to assume in ...
view more4 · This method converts the compressive strength to the Mean Axial Tensile Strength, then converts this to flexural strength and includes an adjustment for the depth of the slab. These equations are shown below. fck = Characteristic Concrete Compressive Strength (Cylinder) h = Depth of Slab. The two methods agree reasonably well for …
view moreUnconfined Compression Test. The Unconfined Compression Test is a laboratory test used to derive the Unconfirmed Compressive Strength (UCS) of a rock specimen. Unconfirmed Compressive Strength (UCS) stands for the maximum axial compressive stress that a specimen can bear under zero confining stress. Due to the fact that stress is applied …

UCS is one of the most important engineering parameters in rock mechanics, and it is used to characterize and examine the behaviors of solid rocks. Considering the difficulty of conducting tests on …
view moreUnconfined compressive strength is a standard geotechnical test performed on cohesive soil samples in construction materials testing laboratories. Intact, remolded, or reconstituted cylindrical soil specimens are axially loaded to failure on a laboratory load frame as stress forces vs. strain (deformation) values are recorded.
