Prediction of the uniaxial compressive strength and Brazilian tensile strength of weak conglomerate

Abstract Uniaxial compressive strength and tensile strength considered as important parameters in characterization of rock material in rock engineering. The necessary core samples cannot always be obtained from weak and block-in-matrix conglomeratic rock. For this reason, the predictive models can e...
