About this document

Point Load Test on Meta-Sedimentary Rocks by DIEGO RUIZ is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document describes a study that performed point load tests on 118 specimens of meta-sedimentary rock cored from 12 rock blocks located at an underground oil storage site in Singapore. The point load strength index (Is(50)) values were determined from both diametral and axial point load tests. Regression analysis was used to correlate the Is(50) values with uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and Brazilian tensile strength (BTS) values from previous tests. Photomicrographs showed the rocks consisted of q
