COMPRESSIVE STRENGTHS OF HIGH-TEMPERATURE THERMAL INSULATION A common test to measure compression strength is applying pressure on the surface of the insulation until a % of compression is attained We have performed this test on material “out-of-the-box” and material exposed to various service temperatur “OUT-OF-THE-BOX” MEASURES.

jointed rock masses, three ‘properties’ of the rock mass have to be estimated These are: uniaxial compressive strength ci of the intact rock pieces, value of the Hoek-Brown constant m i for these intact rock pieces, and value of the Geological Strength Index GSI for the rock mass Intact rock properties.

Hoek and Brown compiled extensive data on a variety of rock types and produced relationships that are simple and can be developed into forms amenable to well-log analysis A primary feature of this failure criterion is a relation between the maximum and minimum stresses when both are normalized by the uniaxial compressive strength.

compressive strength is then defined as the maximum load applied to crush the specimen divided by the cross-sectional area Rock strength has been found to be size dependent because of the , measuring tensile strength A rock specimen having a disc shape with diameter (d) and thickness (t) is loaded as illustrated in Fig 85.

1 When rock fails in compression, the compressive stress exceeds the compressive strength 2 Even poorly-consolidated sands are characterized by a high coefficient of internal friction Weak rocks are weak because they lack cohesion 3 Intermediate principal stress (S 2) probably influences compressive strength only at very great depth 4.

For normal field applications, the concrete strength can vary from 10Mpa to 60 Mpa For certain applications and structures, concrete mixes can be designed to obtain very high compressive strength capacity in the range of 500Mpa, usually referred as Ultra High Strength.

• The peak stress is the strength of the rock - It may fail catastrophically if the load frame is “soft” Example below is for a “stiff” frame • The compressive strength of rock is a function of the confining pressure • As the confining pressure increases so does the strength Goodman, Intro to Rock.

Sep 25, 2017· Concrete Mix Proportions Notes to Remember 1) The more rock, the greater the compressive strength of concrete The more sand, the greater the workability 2) Adhesion (cement) and compressive strength (rock) are two different factors in the quality of concrete More cement does not mean more compressive strength; it means more tensile strength.

Estimating compressive strength General rock failure criterion can be reduced to a few parameters dependent on lithology (m) and the uniaxial compressive strength (C 0) Lithology is commonly derived during log analysis, so m may be estimated (Table 1) What is needed still is an initial measure of rock strength provided by C 0.
