Influence of moisture content on the strength of weathered sandstone

Influence of moisture content on the strength of weathered sandstone

Variation of moisture content of weathered rock is an important issue in the tropical climate as extreme temperature and heavy downpour accelerate the changes in rock properties. This paper presents the results of excavatability study on sandstones of various weathering stages focusing on the effect...
