Water saturation effects on the tensile strength of rocks
For the design of underground structures within a rock mass, the two most important parts are to find out the design stresses that the structure will withstand, as well as the design strength of the rock mass. As the tensile strength of rocks is known to be much lower than its compressive strength,...
