Predicting the Uniaxial Compressive Strength of a Limestone
The effect of exposure to high temperature on rock strength is a topic of interest in many engineering fields. In general, rock strength is known to decrease as temperature increases. The most common test used to evaluate the rock strength is the uniaxial compressive strength test (UCS). It can only be carried out in laboratory and presents some limitations in terms of …

Influence of specimen shape deviations on uniaxial compressive strength
The results of an experimental research program on ninety intact rock cylindrical test specimens are presented. The main goal is to examine the effect of specimen shape deviations (i.e. "micro" deviations from flatness, parallelism of ends and specimen axis perpendicularity) on uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) for limestone and similar rocks.
