Abstract — The paper presents time dependent changes of mechanical properties (Young's Modulus, strength and creep ) of grey calcined gypsum. These material properties were measured in different time instants during hardening on the gypsum specimens of

Rock Mechanics Problems • How will rock react when put to men's use? • What is the bearing capacity of rock on surface an at depths? • What is the shear strength of rocks? • What is the response of rocks under dynamic / earthquake type loading? • What is the modulus of elasticity of rock and how to get it?

Aug 12, 2019· Evaluating mechanical properties of simply made samples by 3D technology at nanoscale provides a clear path to better understand larger-scale responses of complex natural rocks. Therefore, to realize the similarity between synthetically manufactured materials and natural geomaterials, this study focused on nanoscale mechanical characterization of a 3D printed object .

The high sedimentological variability of gypsum rocks has the effect that a univocal characterization of this material is not easy to establish. This is particularly true from the geomechanical point of view: when the mechanical properties of gypsum rocks are requested, it is therefore necessary to undertake detailed characterization analyses.

Mechanical properties of rock. Mechanical properties include: Elastic properties (Young's modulus, shear modulus, bulk modulus, and Poisson's ratio) [See Stress strain relationships in rocks for calculations of these properties]; Inelastic properties (fracture gradient and formation strength)

GYPSUM . 1 . 1. GYPSUM . Gypsum usually is found in rock formation in nature, as CaSO. 4 (2H. 2. O). It is hydrous calcium sulfate with compounds of lime, sulfur and water. 1.1 Production of Gypsum . Gypsum is rarely found in the pure state but usually contains varying amount of clay, limestone, silica, iron compound, etc.

This article develops a relationship between the reduction of density in lightened gypsum and the addition of expanded and/or extruded polystyrene waste from the construction sector and their mechanical behavior. The equations determined in this study allow us to know the flexural and compressive strengths of a lightened gypsum/plaster compound once its density is known.

Nov 30, 2015· In this study, the mechanical properties and permeability variation in single joint rock samples filled with a gypsum layer were investigated. In order to simulate the inclined infilled joint, the solid cylinders were saw-cut at the dip angles of 90°, 60°, 45°, 30° or 0° with respect to the samples' axes, and then joined together with ...

Rock mass properties 9 the tunnel face is shown in Figure 3 and a back analysis of the behaviour of this material suggests that an appropriate value for V ci is approximately 50 MPa. In other words, on the scale of the 5.5 m diameter tunnel, the rock mass properties are "averaged" and there

general, rock and rock mass properties can be divided into five groups: C physical properties (durability, hardness, porosity, etc.), C mechanical properties (deformability, strength), C hydraulic properties (permeability, storativity), C thermal properties (thermal expansion, conductivity), and C .

discontinuity system produces a rock mass composed of a stack of rock columns which can be visualised as an array of interacting cantilever beams fixed at a certain depth, and ... quality models with uniform joint contacts and mechanical properties. Two thin paper ... since the strength of gypsum is dependent on the water content. The model was ...

In experimental studies, two different brittle materials, high quality marble and moulded gypsum, representing different types of rocks are used. The mechanical properties of both intact and non-intact specimens including the compressive strength, the tensile strength, the elastic modulus, and the failure strain are tested under different ...

Governorate is a material produced from calcined gypsum by the "Koor method". Gypsum rock pieces are placed on openings in the koor dome and the heat source is at the base of the dome. Heating continues for 24 hours. The final product the juss is a mechanical mixture of anhydrite, bassanite and unburnt gypsum. ... Compressive strength and ...

Correlations between rock mass quality and mechanical properties of the rock mass have been established and are used to determine and estimate its mechanical proper-ties and its squeezing or swelling behavior. Disadvantages of rock mass classification According to Bieniawski (1993), the major pitfalls of rock mass classification systems

purpose of rock mass classification, the use of the well -known point load strength index can be useful as the index can be determined in the field on rock core retrieved from borings and the core does not require any specimen preparation. Knowing the rock type and rock material hardness, it is possible for the experienced engineer or
