Rock mass strength is scale dependent and varies with the volume of rock under consideration. The modes of failure of intact rock are multiple. Rock can fail in tension, compression or shear. This depends on the load configuration, the geometry of the …

compressive strength of limestone for crusher
So, compressive strength is the highest load per unit area borne by the stone without giving in. A higher compressive strength between1,800 psi (12.45 MPa) and 19,000 psi (131 MPa) means the stone can endure an upper crushing load. Dry or wet conditions as per load determine the compressive strength of the stone. Bending …

Mechanical behavior of different sedimentary rocks in the …
Comparing the uniaxial compression strength to the tension strength, it can be concluded compression-to-tension strength ratio of the tested rocks is large. Average value of the strength ratio in the coal (16.9) is much larger than that in the mudstone and sandstone, which are equal to 8.5 and 9.7, respectively.

Considerations on strength of intact sedimentary rocks
The most significant factors affecting the results of Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) test are the size, slenderness ratio h/d (ratio of height to diameter), and the shape of the rock specimen. The proposed experimental study shows the variable impact of these parameters on UCS values by implementing several lithological types.

This study examines the one-dimensional stress–strain behaviour of sand at effective stresses as high as 50 MPa. Experiments were performed on 22 sands (approx. 150 tests) with different grain size, uniformity coefficient, angularity, density, grain mineralogy, and clay content. The results show that minor grain corner crushing starts at stresses of 2–8 …
