Description
Summary:The Triaxial Conuiresaxve Slrength is the one of the important mechamcal propernes ofrocks. itcanbe definedasthe fafflure strength of an intact of rock samples. The triaxial test is intended to measure the strcngth of cylmdrical rock specimen by whkh the value of the intemal fiictk» angle 4 , and Ine apparent cohesion c . The testing is compry with the guggested method of testing outüned by the Intemational Society of Rock Mechanics (ISRM). Atso, The slrength criterion of rock samples are analyse and the mode of future of the rock samples are observe in this study. Now, rock engineering is gaming popularity in Malayma and South East Asia. By knowing Ine mechamcal propernes of rock, the engineer and designer can determme the potenual usage in civü engineering rdated work as wefl as the engineering appfication of rock. The main used of mü mechamcal propernes are for the design of structure, characterization of intact rock inateiial,varkw8undergrouiri Thus, the knowledge of me strength of rock b the part of engineering appfication and veryuseful for the future.
