Supported Test Methods
Standard | Description |
|---|---|
ISRM Part II:1978:10 | Suggested Method for Determining Point Load Strength |
BS EN 1926:2006 | Natural stone test methods. Determination of uniaxial compressive strength |

Input
Lab-Rock | UCS & Deformability
To calculate the UCS and Young's Modulus values, you must first select the standard from the Test_Method field on the UCS_&_Deformability (upper) table that the specimen is being tested against. Then enter the necessary data in the data entry fields (Diameter, Length, Mass, Test_Duration, Stress_Rate, Strain_Rate, Youngs_Modulus_Determination and the Youngs_Modulus_Stress_Level).
Enter the test data in the data entry fields in the UCS_Readings (lower) table (Time, Load, Axial_Deformation_1, Axial_Deformation_2, Lateral_Deformation_1, Lateral_Deformation_2 or Circumferential_Deformation) and click Save, Ctrl+S or change row to initiate the calculation. The values will be calculated automatically and the result will be displayed in the calculated fields. The Lateral_Deformation will be calculated either using the values entered in the fields Lateral_Deformation_1 and Lateral_Deformation_2 or in the Circumferential_Deformation.
