Strength of Rock and Rock Mass

Strength of Rock and Rock Mass

Strength of Rock and Rock MassDesigning with rocks and rock masses bears many similarities to techniques that have been developed for soils. There is however a number of major differences:(1)The scale effect is overwhelming in rocks. Rock strength varies widely with sample size. Atone end, we have the intact rock (homogenous, isotropic, solid, continuous with no obvious structural defects) which really exists only at the hand-specimen scale. At the other end is the rock mass that is heterogeneous and anisotropic carrying all the defects that is characteristic of the rock mass at the field scale. In the design of engineering structures in rock, the size of interest is determined by the size of the rock mass that carries the stresses that are imposed on it.(2)Rock has tensile strength. It may have substantial tensile strength at the intact rock scale, butmuch smaller at the scale of the rock mass. Even then only in exceptional circumstances can the rock mass be considered as a “tensionless” material. Intact ro ck fails in tension along planes that are perpendicular to maximum tension (or minimum compression) and not along shear planes as suggested by the Coulomb theory).(3)The effect of water on the rock mass is more complex.(a)Pore space in most intact rocks is very small and so is the permeability. The watercontained in the pore space is not necessarily free water. The truly free water existsonly in the rock mass, in fractures, where water may flow at high rates.(b)In contrast to soils, water is more compressible (by about one order of magnitude)than intact rock. The difference would be smaller when compared with thecompressibility of the rock mass (especially close to the free surface where loose rockcommonly found).Note that in the derivation of the effectivesmall. This is not so for rocksincreasing the grain-to grain contactsignificant degree. The assumption ofwater controls the way anstress (total stress) is distributedconditions, the effective stressconcept passes the whole externalin rock, because water is more include its effect separately as a “water force” rather than mix its effect with the rock response (as in the effective stress theory).(4)In compression, intact rock does not fail according to the Coulomb theory. It is true, that itsstrength increases with confining pressure, but at failure there is no evidence for theappearance of a shear fracture as predicted by the Coulomb theory. Furthermore the “envelope “ is usually nonlinear following a y 2=x type of parabolic law. Interestingly, shear fractures do form, but not at peak stress; they form as part of the collapse mechanism, usually quite late in the post-failure history.Strength of Intact RockIntact rock has both tensile and compressive strength, but the compressive to tensile strength ratio is quite high, about 20. In uniaxial tension, failure follows the maximum principal stress theory:σ3=T owhich would suggest that the other two principal stresses have no influence. At failure a fractureplane forms that is oriented perpendicular to the σ3(Figure 28) Note that the Coulomb theory would predict shear failure in uniaxial tension at 45-φ/2with σ3. There was a suggestion to combine theCoulomb theory with the maximum stress theory (the tension cutoff) which would predict the properorientation of the failure plane for both tension andcompression. Others would rather replace both witha y 2=x type of parabola (Figure 29). As discussedearlier, the shear fracture does not appear at point of failure, so that this aspect of the Coulomb theory is meaningless. In fact, there is little point in using theMohr’s diagram. In rock mechanics, failure conditions are more meaningfully presented in theσ3-σ1 space using a nonlinear function for strength. Although there are many variations of this function, the most popular one is due to Hoek and Brown (1980) which has the general form of σσσσσ1332f c c m s =++This is shown in Figure 30. H ere σc is the uniaxial compressive strength of the intact rock, m is aconstant (characteristic of the rock type) and s is arock mass parameter. s =1 for intact rock. Typicalvalues of the m parameter can be found in the first row of Table 1. The s parameter is significant only in extending the strength function to the strength ofthe rock mass. The same diagram is often used to define the safety factor for an existing state of stress (σ3,σ1):τσSafety Factor f =σσ11where both σ1 and σ1f are measured at the value of σ3Strength of the Rock MassThe strength of the rock mass is only a fraction of the strength of the intact strength. The reason for this is that failure in the rock mass is a combination of both intact rock strength and separation or sliding along discontinuities. The latter process usually dominate. Sliding ondiscontinuities occurs against the cohesional and/or frictional resistance along the discontinuity. The cohesional component is only a very small fraction of the cohesion of the intact rock.Table 1. Finding the parameters m and s from classification parameters.In designing with the rock mass, two different procedures are used. When a rock block is well defi ned, its stability is best evaluated through a standard “rigid -body” analysis technique. All the forces on the block are vector-summed and the resultant is resolved into tangential and normal components with respect to the sliding plane. The safety factor becomes the ratio of the available resistance to sliding to the tangential (driving) force. This is the technique used in slope stabilityanalysis. The second technique is stress rather than force-based. Here the stresses are evaluated (usually modeled through numerical procedures) and compared with available strength. The latter is expressed in terms of the Hoek and Brown rock mass strength function. This is where the s parameter becomes useful. s=1 for intact rock and s<1 for the rock mass. Essentially, what we are doing is simply to discount the intact rock strength. The difficult question is what value to assign to s? There is no test that will define this value. In theory, its is possible to do field tests of the rock mass, but it is expensive and not necessarily very reliable. Hoek and Brown however have compiled a list of s values depending on the rock type and the rock classification ratings.A simplified version of this is presented in Table 1. To make use of this Table, one needs only the rock type and one of the ratings from either the CSIR or the NGI classification. Ratings that are not listed will have to be interpolated. User’s of this Table are however warned that this approach is given here as a guide and its reliability is open to question. Nevertheless, the given s values are so small that they would tend to under rather than overestimate thestrength of the rock mass. Problems however could arise when failure occurs along a single weak discontinuity (slope stability), in which case the stress-based approach is obviously invalid.We are going to show how design engineering structures in rocks through two examples. One will use the rock mass design using the Hoek and Brown approximation for strength and the other the technique of applying the block theory to designing rock slopes.In earlier discussions, we have worked an examplewith rock mass classification. Now let us assumethat we are going to build a twin-tunnel roadsystem at some depth in the worked rock mass.The plan is two make two inverted-U shapedtunnels, each tunnel to be 3 m high and 4 m wide.The tunnels are to be separated by a pillar (rockleft in place), preferably no more than 4 m wide.The safety factor for the pillar should be 1.5 orbetter. The depth of siting for the roadway has notbeen established yet, but it could range anywherebetween 100 and 300 m, the deeper the better.Your job is to find the appropriate depth withinthis range. This is an example for pillar design.The loading condition is determined by assuming that the weight of the overlying rock mass, as shown in Figure 31, is distributed evenly across the width of the pillar at AA (this is not quite true, the stresses are usually higher at the tunnel perimeter than at the center, but the high safety factor should take care of this). You follow this procedure now:(1)Find the rock mass strength using your classification and the strength table give above.(2)Find the volume and the weight of the overlying rock using 100 m for depth (check if youhave a unit weight for the rock in the report).(3)Distribute the total weigh over the cross sectional area AA. This is the average vertical stresson the cross section(4)Formulate the safety factor asSfStrength Vertical Sress(5) Check the safety factor at 300 m(6) See if you can get an algebraic expression for the safety factor using h as a variable.(7) What is the story you are going to tell the boss?In the second example, we are going to examine the stability of a block of rock found on a slope. Although this is going to be a simple problem, it will still illustrate the procedure involved in analyzing rock slope stability. Pay particular attention how the effect of ground water is incorporated into the stability analysis. We use block analysis when we expect the block to slide on a single or a combination of discontinuities and we have pretty good control over the geometry. This means that we have good knowledge of the size and through this the weight of the block and the geometry of the slope. In the simple two-dimensional case, which we are to discuss, the geometry is simply the slope angle. The biggest problem is how to get a decent estimate of the resistance to slide. In this regard, conditions are similar to rock mass analysis, where we had to come up with an estimate of the rock mass strength. Again, we will have to use a lot of judgement. There are two ways to proceed. One is to accept the definition of shear resistance as in the Coulomb theory. This means that the discontinuity shear strength is made up of two components, a cohesion and a frictional resistance. The cohesion supposed to represent the strength of "solid rock bridges" that may exist at the base and will have to be sheared off to let the block move. This is the hardest part to estimate, because it may vary between zero and the strength of the solid rock (no bread at the base). Usually, it is a very small fraction of the solid strength. The frictional part is simply the normal force times the tangent of the friction angle. We use forces rather than stresses here and the resistance force according to the Coulomb specification becomes:Discontinuity shear strength Cohesive force N =+tan φThe Coulomb type of specification is useful only in the "back analysis" of slope failures. In theconsulting business, a common chore is toredesign slopes that have either failed orshowed signs of instability (tension crack at the back of the slope). In cases like this, thea good estimate of the frictionand find the value of theshear strength. Having this,force is practically impossible. discontinuity strengthby the same author who wasinvolved in constructing the NGIw a t e r w a t e r t h r u s tclassification (reference). The Coulomb theory proposes a linear law for discontinuity strength, the Barton specification advances a non-linear law:τσσφ=⎛⎝⎫⎭⎪+⎛⎝⎫⎭⎪nnbJRCJCStan log10Here stress rather than force units are used. σn and τ would refer to the average normal stress and the unit shear strength respectively. For comparison with the Coulomb specification, τ and σn are obtained by dividing the shear resistance force and the normal force by the area of contact. The Barton strength uses three material parameters: JRC (joint roughness coefficient), JCS (joint compressive strength) and φb (basic friction angle). JRC varies between 0 (very smooth, planar joint) and 20 (rough undulating surface). JCS is a fraction of the compressive strength of the rock. The compressive strength should be discounted depending on the condition of the rock walls on the two sides of the joint. Usually the surface is weathered and altered and may carry soft filling. In the latter case, the strength would be very small indeed. The basic friction angle is what we would normally call the friction angle determined on a flat surface rubbing against another flat surface of the same rock.Besides needing three parameters as opposed to Coulomb's two, the nonlinear strength is different from the Coulomb law that it has no strength at zero normal stress. Essentially, the Barton specification is defined in terms of a friction angle that is adjusted for joint roughness and the strength of rock.Being armed with some knowledge of discontinuity strength, we can now attempt to find the safety factor for the problem shown in Figure 32. We are looking at the stability of the dark-shaded mass of rock. There is the possibility of sliding down along joint plane sloping at angle α. First, we should establish the forces that act on this block of rock. Weight is an obvious one. The water forces are based on the assumption that water flows along the slide plane and perhaps along other joints or as in this case in a tension crack as well. If there was no tension crack, we would have an uplift force alone arising from the fact that water would normally flow in at the high-elevation end and flow out at the low elevation. The head of water at the intake and discharge points is zero. It would normally maximize between. Here we assume a triangular distribution, assuming that the maximum head occurs at midpoint and its value is one half of the elevation difference between intake and the discharge points. The uplift force itself is equal to the area of the pressure distribution diagram (light-shaded area) and acts perpendicular to the slide surface. With a tension crack, there could be a slope-parallel water thrust due to water accumulating in the tension crack. Its value would be calculated from the upper (small) light-shaded triangle. For this the maximum head would occur at the base, with the maximum head being equal to the elevation difference between the top and the bottom of the tension crack.With the loads now defined, we can go and get an estimate to the shear resistance that could develop along the sliding surface. Let us use the Coulomb specification. Furthermore, let us put in an extra little story here. Imagine that you are a consulting engineer who was called to this site, because the people below that rock block claim that the block almost came down on them during the last big rainfall. This story would justify the assumption that the safety factor is close to unity. So do this:(1)Assume that the elevation difference between the intake and discharge points is 20 m and theslope angle is 30︒. Find the weight of the block of rock (hint: turn it into a triangle to ease thepain of calculation) using a width of 1 m in the third direction. Assume 25 kN/m3 for the unit weight.(2)Compute the uplift force and the water thrust(3)Resolve all the forces into components, normal and parallel with the slide plane(4)Sum the parallel (tangential) forces to get the Driving Force(5)Sum the normal forces and get the total frictional resistance by multiplying it with tan φ (use30︒)(6)Define the cohesive force as unit cohesion times the total area of contact; the unit cohesionwill stay as a variable now(7)Add the cohesive force to the total frictional force(8)Formulate the safety factor, equate it with 1 and compute the friction angle.After this operation, you have all the strength parameters defined and are ready to redesign the slope. In practice, you would get rid of the water by drilling drainage holes to intersect and drain the slide plane. Assuming that the drainage works, do the last thing:(9) Find now the safety factor for the slope with the water effect gone! If it is greater than about 1.25, tell the people that the slope is safe as long as they have the drainage holes clean. Otherwise you would have to install and anchor system to increase the safety factor (changing the weight of the block by shaving it would result in a minor improvement only, you can try this analysis too.)。

This paper is an attempt to set the record straight and to present an interpretation of the criterion which covers the complete range of rock mass types and which has been found to work well in practice.
The criterion is purely empirical and hence there are no ‘correct’ ways to interpret the various relationships which can be derived. Under the circumstances, it is not surprising that there have been a few less than useful mutations and that some users have been confused by the alternative interpretations which have been published.

that the key factors affecting the proper pillar width were the stopping span and depth. The relevant theory was verified by field tests.
Severe damage occurs frequently in mine pillars subjected to shear stresses. The empirical design charts or formulas for mine pillars are not applicable to orebodies under shear. In this paper, the failure process of pillars under shear stresses was investigated by numerical simulations using the rock failure process analysis (RFPA) 2D software. The numerical simulation results indicate that the strength of mine pillars and the corresponding failure mode vary with different width-to-height ratios and dip angles. With increasing dip angle, stress concentration first occurs at the intersection between the pillar and the roof, leading to formation of microcracks. Damage gradually develops from the surface to the core of the pillar. The damage process is tracked with acoustic emission monitoring. The study in this paper can provide an effective means for understanding the failure mechanism, planning, and design of mine pillars.

ORIGINAL PAPERMixed-Mode Fracturing of Rocks Under Static and Cyclic LoadingN.Erarslan •D.J.WilliamsReceived:1April 2012/Accepted:19August 2012/Published online:2September 2012ÓSpringer-Verlag 2012Abstract Static diametrical compression tests conducted on inclined cracked chevron notched Brazilian disc (CCNBD)Brisbane tuff specimens showed that the not-ched cracks at the centre of the specimens opened (Mode I)up to 30°crack inclination angle (b ),whereas crack closure (Mode II)started for b [33°,and closure became more pronounced at even higher b of 45°and 70°.Both the experimental and numerical results showed that the crack initiation angle (h )was a function of the b .Scanning electron microscope (SEM)images showed that fatigue damage on cyclic loading of Brisbane tuff is strongly influenced by the failure of the matrix due to both inter-granular and transgranular fracturing.Keywords Mixed-mode fracturing ÁFRANC2D ÁCCNBD ÁCyclic loading ÁRock fatigue1IntroductionThe application and understanding of fracture mechanics has great importance in the analysis of the performance of rock structures.Rapid and violent failures of large-scale mining or civil engineering rock structures can cause sig-nificant safety hazards,material damage and interruption to mining or building activities.The fundamental questions in both mining and civil engineering relate to predicting the failure load of rock structures consisting of flaws and cracks,and to revealing the combination of load and flawgeometry that lead to failure.Rock discontinuities are also of major importance in structural geology and seismology.Rock fracture mechanics is one approach to recognising pre-failure rock mass behaviour,which may result in pre-dicting or preventing the potential for geotechnical and geological failure (Szwedzicki 2003).The prediction of the direction of crack propagation and orientation of fracture in a brittle rock becomes crucial,because,once a crack has opened,the state of stress in the vicinity of the crack tip is altered significantly.Failure mechanics (rock mechanics)and fracture mechanics seem to correlate with their investigations of rock breakage;however,there are differences between them.Rock failure mechanics is concerned with failure in a continuum sense,in which the rock or rock mass undergoes permanent damage,affecting its ability to sustain load.In contrast,fracture mechanics,sometimes called crack mechanics,is concerned with the individual crack or cracks.Moreover,existing failure criteria and theories,such as the well-known Coulomb criterion,often deal directly with fracture processes;however,they cannot be expected to deal with crack propagation in terms of the length of the crack or the direction of crack propagation.Fracture mechanics or,more specifically,linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM),has become well developed over the past 50years,as engineers have tried to under-stand the brittle failure of structures made of high-strength metal alloys (Rosmanith 1983).However,fracture mechanics was only applied to the study of rock fracturing in the 1980s (Whittaker et al.1992).Some past research on rock fracture mechanics has provided significant knowl-edge on tensile fracturing (Mode I fracturing;Atkinson et al.1982;Shetty et al.1985).Tensile fractures within rock can be generated in both tensile and compressive stress fields;therefore,they areN.Erarslan (&)ÁD.J.WilliamsGeotechnical Engineering Centre,School of Civil Engineering,The University of Queensland,St Lucia,Brisbane 4072,Australiae-mail:nazife.tiryaki@.auRock Mech Rock Eng (2013)46:1035–1052DOI 10.1007/s00603-012-0303-5very common.They include the vertical fractures caused in pillars in excavations due to the weight of the overburden,or fractures from the hydraulic stimulation of boreholes.Moreover,some researchers showed that shear loading (Mode II loading)of existing fractures was observed to initiate tensile fractures (Brace and Bombolakis 1963;Horii and Nemat-Nasser 1985).However,pre-existing cracks in rock and discontinuities in rock masses are sel-dom subjected to tensile loading (Mode I);rather,they are subjected to compressive,shear (Mode II)or mixed-mode loading (Mode I–II).Cracks or discontinuities in rocks are not subjected to just one type of loading.Some rock structures,such as bridge abutments,dam and road foundations,and tunnel walls,undergo both static and cyclic loading caused by,for example,vehicle-induced vibrations,drilling and blasting or traffic.This type of loading often causes rock to fail at a lower than expected stress.The design of such structures requires understanding of,and research on,rock mechan-ical parameters under various loading conditions.Thus,the objectives of this study were to:(1)investigate the change of failure load,fracturing mode and crack ini-tiation point with changing crack inclination angle (b ),which is defined as the angle between the diametral com-pressive load and the notched crack axis,under both static and cyclic loading;(2)compare fracturing modes under static and cyclic loading;and (3)analyse the applicability of one numerical tools based on the finite element method (FEM),which was implemented with classical fracture mechanics criteria applied to the crack propagation path under static diametral compressive loading using cracked chevron notched Brazilian disc (CCNBD)specimen geometry.2Theory of Crack Initiation Under Compressive and Mixed-Mode I–II Loading Cracks and/or discontinuities are common structural fea-tures of rock masses.LEFM is based on the stress intensity factor (SIF),K ,which quantifies the intensity of the stresssingularity at the crack tip.Fracture mechanics states that a crack will propagate when its stress intensity reaches a critical value,K C ,assuming that the crack tip is in a state of plane strain.The stress intensity factor depends on the fracture displacement modes and crack geometry.A crack can deform in three basic modes:Mode I,Mode II and Mode III.The classification of fracturing is based on the crack surface displacement or the crack tip loading (Lawn 1993;Whittaker et al.1992).Mode I,which is also called the opening (tensile)mode,is so called because the crack tip is subjected to a normal stress and the crack faces separate symmetrically with respect to the crack front,so that the displacements of the crack surfaces are perpen-dicular to the crack plane (see Fig.1).The crack carries no shear traction and no shear displacement is visible.Mode II is the edge sliding (or in-plane shearing)mode,where the crack tip is subjected to an in-plane shear stress and the crack faces slide relative to each other so that the dis-placements of the crack surfaces are in the crack plane and are perpendicular to the crack front (see Fig.1).Mode III is the tearing mode,as the crack tip is subjected to an out-of-plane shear stress.The crack faces move relative to each other so that the displacements of the crack surfaces are in the crack plane,but are parallel to the crack front (see Fig.1).The International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM)has suggested two methods to determine the Mode I frac-ture toughness using a core-based specimen (Ouchterlony 1988;ISRM 1995,while several other methods have been proposed in the literature (Chong and Kuruppu 1984;Guo et al.1993).For the determination of Mode II fracture toughness,several experimental methods have been pro-posed in the literature (Jumikis 1979;Chang et al.2002;Ingraffea 1981;Backer 2004;Rao et al.2003;Hasanpour and Choupani 2009).The classical mixed-mode fracture criteria are incapable of predicting Mode II fracture toughness and,at present,there is no ISRM-suggested method for determining this toughness value.Many of the currently available methods used to measure the K IIC of rocks are based on the application of a pure,shear loading to the specimen,regardless of the fracture pattern,whichisFig.1Three fracture modes and corresponding crack surface displacements1036N.Erarslan,D.J.Williamswhy the fracturing of rocks under mixed-mode loading has attracted more attention in recent years(Chang et al.2002; Rao et al.2003;Al-Shayea2005;Ayatollahi and Aliha 2007).Various criteria have been suggested in the literature to explain crack initiation and propagation under mixed-mode I–II loading(Erdogan and Sih1976;Hussain and Pu 1974).For practical applications,the three fundamental fracture criteria of maximum tangential stress(Erdogan and Sih1976),maximum energy release rate(Hussain and Pu1974)and minimum strain energy density(Hussain and Pu1974)appear to be the most commonly employed.In general,the angle of fracture initiation and the frac-ture envelopes predicted by the different fracture criteria are in close agreement with each other,even though they are based on different fracture parameters and assumptions. They have been used for crack initiation and propagation under pure Mode I and Mode II loading.When they are used to study the crack initiation under compressive load-ing,the problem is more complicated.It has been postu-lated that crack initiation under compressive loading results from the crack tip local tensile stresses(Griffith1924). Crack initiation,propagation and specimen failure do not occur at the same time;rather,each separately forms a particular fracture process.However,the crack initiation from a pre-existing crack tip,called the primary crack,does not have to lead to failure,since this initial crack propa-gation may be arrested at some stress level.With increas-ing load,secondary cracks develop and propagate until they reach the boundary,leading tofinal failure,or until they act as a ligament between primary cracks to cause a final failure plane.The sliding crack model wasfirst pro-posed as a mechanism to study the non-elastic dilation of rocks under compressive loading(Brace and Bombolakis 1963).The model contains an initial crack that is oriented at an angle with respect to the compressive load,and a pair of curved tensile cracks that are oriented at an angle to the initial crack.According to the model,tensile cracks are caused by the sliding of the initial crack under compressive loading.An exact analytical solution of the stressfield to the sliding crack model was given by(Horii and Nemat-Nasser1985).With this solution,it was accepted that the critical orientation of a crack was inclined to the direction parallel to the major principal stress.Mixed-mode I–II fracture problems under compressive loading are shown to be more complicated than,and also quite different from,those under tension.In general,it is accepted that tensile cracks grow initially at an angle with respect to the direction of the compressive stress,and then rapidly grow in the direction of the compressive stress (Al-Shayea2005;Hoek and Bieniawski1965;Li et al. 2005).Relatively few published results are available regarding experimental work on mixed-mode I–II fractur-ing in rocks.There are also few published results on the fracture toughness under mixed-mode I–II loading(Chong and Kuruppu1984;Al-Shayea2005;Ayatollahi and Aliha 2007;Barker1977;Awaji and Sato1978;Huang and Wang1985;Chen1990).In general,it has been found that the full range of mixed-mode loading conditions,including pure Mode I and pure Mode II loading,could be created using an inclined crack with inclination angles(b)between0°and90°. Another study investigated mixed-mode fracturing in sandstone specimens under three-point bending(Li et al. 2005).They found that crack initiation did not start from the pre-existing notched crack under mixed-mode loading, irrespective of the location of the notched crack.With their three-point bending tests under mixed-mode loading,while initial damage was observed at the tip of the notch,the failure occurred at the centre of the beam,and not at the notch.The central crack Brazilian disc(CCBD)subjected to diametral compression has been widely used to investigate the Mode I,Mode II and mixed-mode fracture of brittle rocks(Atkinson et al.1982;Shetty et al.1985;Al-Shayea 2005;Awaji and Sato1978).More commonly,if a CCNBD specimen is loaded with the crack orientated at an appro-priate angle with respect to the loading direction,a mixed-mode I–II stressfield can be achieved at the crack tips(see Fig.2).The applied stress translates into a stress intensity factor at the crack tip.The equations given by LEFM to calculate stresses and the stress intensity factor for a crack under tensile loading are also applicable for a crack under com-pressive loading;however,they use opposite signs;that is, K I and K II become negative.A negative K I indicates compressive stress acting at the crack tip,and a negative K II indicates an opposite direction for the shear stress acting parallel to the crack plane.As shown in Fig.3,the inclination angle(h)of a compressively loaded crack is such that the crack extension occurs parallel to themajor Fig.2CCBD specimen under diametral compressionFracturing of Rocks Under Static and Cyclic Loading1037principal compressive stress (see Fig.3a),while it is par-allel to the minor principal tensile stress in the case of a crack under a tensile stress (see Fig.3b).The fracture stresses for Mode I,Mode II and mixed-mode I–II compressive loading can be found similarly to those for tension loading by using the three fracture criteria used in fracture mechanics (Erdogan and Sih 1976;Hussain and Pu 1974;Sih 1974).In contrast,some researchers have provided a closed-form solution for the stress distribution in cracked and uncracked disc specimens under diametral compression (Atkinson et al.1982;Shetty et al.1985;Awaji and Sato 1978).Shetty et al.(1985)first used a CSNBD specimen to calculate both Mode I and Mode II fracture toughnesses of ceramics.Atkinson et al.(1982)and Awaji and Sato (1978)developed dimensionless Mode I stress intensity factor (NI)and dimensionless Mode II stress intensity factor (NII)solutions depending on the dimensionless notch length a (a /R )and the notch inclina-tion angle (b )with respect to the loading direction.3Sample Preparation and Testing Procedure Three rock types were tested in this study:Brisbane tuff,granite and sandstone,which represented medium-,high-and low-strength rocks,respectively.Brisbane tuff,with typically 97MPa uniaxial compressive strength (UCS),was a host rock of Brisbane’s first motorway tunnel,CLEM7,from which core samples were obtained.The granite blocks,with typically 210MPa UCS,were from the Keperra Quarry,Brisbane.The sandstone samples,with typically 37MPa UCS,were from Helidon,Brisbane.All samples were reasonably isotropic,and the CCNBD spec-imens were used in both the static and cyclic tests.The CCNBD method has advantages over other ISRM-proposed fracture toughness tests in terms of the simplicity of sample preparation and the reduced material required for testing.In order to obtain accurate fracture toughness values,a sharp crack tip must be NBD specimens achieve this by having a sharp chevron notch tip instead of straight through notch.Another advantage of the CCNBD method over other ISRM methods is increased precision,resulting from a higher load capacity and more consistent results.The geometry of a CCNBD specimen is illustrated in Fig.4.The thickness of the notches,t ,was 1.5mm and the thickness of the specimens,B ,was 25mm.The inner chevron notched crack length,2a 0,was 16–18mm and the outer chevron notched crack length,2a 1,was 36–37mm.All geometrical dimensions should be converted to dimensionless parameters with respect to the specimen radius and diameter.Specimen dimensions are given in the suggested ISRM methods (ISRM 1995).Other specimen geometrical dimensions are possible;however,in order to have a valid test,the two most important dimensions,that is,the dimensionless final notched crack length (a 1)and the dimensionless quantity (a B ),must fall within the range outlined in the suggested ISRM methods (ISRM 1995).The dimensionless initial crack length (a 0=a 0/R ),the dimensionless final notched crack length (a 1=a 1/R )and the dimensionless quantity (a B =B /R )are the three basic dimensions for the CCNBD specimens.All specimen geometries used in this study were in the valid ranges suggested by the ISRM (ISRM 1995).A circular 40mm diamond saw was used to cut the required notch (see Fig.5).A specially designed jig rec-ommended by the ISRM was used to ensure that the chevron notches were exactly in the centre of the disc.Some prepared CCNBD specimens are shown in Fig.5b.The crack displacement was measured as crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD)across the crack mouth.AFig.3Crack propagationpaths under:a compression and b tension1038N.Erarslan,D.J.Williamsclip gauge for measuring the notch opening was attached to the specimen across the chevron notch,and an Instron 2670series crack opening displacement gauge was used to measure the CMOD (see Fig.5c).The gauge length was 10mm and the maximum travel was 2mm.The gauge met the requirements set out in British standard BS 5447and American standard ASTM 39970T.4Experimental Results 4.1Static TestsDisc specimens were loaded at various inclination angles (b )to the static diametral compressive loading direction,rangingfrom 0°to 70°.Load-controlled testing was adopted and loading was continued until failure.Load,diametral dis-placement and crack mouth displacement were continually recorded during each test using a computerised data logger.As the loading type was diametral compression in order to create compression-shear loading on the pre-existing crack plane,the crack initiation angle was positive (counterclockwise)and the crack propagation direction tended to be parallel to the direction of compressive loading.In general,the ultimate failure load for all rock types increased up to b =33°(see Table 1).The reason for this maximum ultimate failure load may be the fact that the highest shear stress occurs with this crack inclination angle under compressive loading.If a CCNBD specimen is loaded with the crack oriented at an appropriate angle (b )with respect to theloadingFig.4CCNBD specimen geometry with recommended testfixtureFig.5CCNBD specimen preparation equipment:a diamond saw,b prepared CCNBD specimens and c loading plates and CMOD transducerFracturing of Rocks Under Static and Cyclic Loading 1039direction,a mixed-mode I–II stress field can be achieved at the crack tips,and the crack propagates at an angle (h )with respect to its crack plane.The crack initiation angle (h )was found in the experimental results reported herein to be strongly dependent on b .It was found that cracks initiated at an angle of 70°–100°relative to the original crack plane when the inclined crack was subjected to diametral com-pressive load.The tested Brisbane tuff,granite and sand-stone specimens are shown in Fig.6.The experimental results showed that cracks initiated at the tip of the notch for specimens of all three rock types for values of b up to 30°.However,one of the most important observations made was that the location of the crack initiation moved to the centre of the notched crack for b C 30°.It was also observed that,with 70°inclined cracks in sandstone and granite specimens,single coplanar shear cracks appeared individually at one end of the tip of the cracks.The dependence of h on b is shown in Table 2for the Brisbane tuff,granite and sandstone specimens.In general,h increases with increasing b for all three rock types.Theresults show that diametral compressive loading along the crack plane in CCNBD specimens always creates mixed-mode fracturing,without any clear Mode II fracturing,although the crack is subjected to compressive-shear loading.Crack displacement (CMOD)was monitored continu-ously until failure.Figures 7,8and 9show the displace-ment responses of the chevron notched crack mouths,for various b ,for Brisbane tuff,granite and sandstone CCNBD specimens,respectively.In general,it is clear that all notched cracks opened for b of up to 28°,for all three rock types.It was concluded that the effective normal stress perpendicular to the crack plane is mostly tensile,which causes the crack to open.However,notched cracks in specimens of the three rock types showed different responses to diametral compression for b =30°and 33°.For instance,for b =30°and 33°,notched cracks in Brisbane tuff CCNBD specimens initially closed,then opened with increasing plastic behaviour up to failure (see Fig.7).In contrast,for b =30°the notched crack in a granite CCNBD specimen opened,while for b =33°it closed (see Fig.8).For b =30°the notched crack in a sandstone CCNBD specimen opened,while for b =33°it closed slightly (see Fig.9).The smallest crack displacement was obtained for the granite specimens,since it is the strongest and most brittle of the three rock types tested.Another important observation from the load–CMOD plots is the clear plastic deformation prior to failure in opening fracturing mode in specimens of all three rock types,which suggests a fracture process zone (FPZ)in front of the crack tip.When crack closing starts,hardly any plastic deformation takes place prior to failure.In particular,no plastic deformation took place prior to failure for b =45°and 70°for specimens of all rock types.4.2Cyclic TestsIn the cyclic tests,ramp waveform-type diametral com-pressive loading with constant amplitude and increasing mean level was used.This approach to the K IC of rock isTable 1Failure loads obtained for Brisbane tuff,granite and sandstone CCNBD samplesInclination angle (b )Failure load (kN)Brisbane tuff Granite Sandstone

previously been reported in the literature.The loading frequency was 1Hz for all tests,and the amplitude is expressed as an absolute (±value)equal to the total range.An illustration of the cyclic loading is given in Fig.10.Four different amplitudes were chosen to investigate the effect of fatigue on the K IC of Brisbane tuff:0.45kN at 10%static ultimate load (SUL),0.9kN at 20%SUL,1.35kN at 30%SUL and 1.8kN at 40%SUL.A series of diametral increasing cyclic compressive loading tests was performed on 12CCNBD Brisbane tuff specimens.The analyses of these tests focused on the reduction of Mode I K IC under cyclic loading with different amplitudes.The K IC value of Brisbane tuff under static loading was calculated as 1.12–1.5MPa H m using the methods suggested by the ISRM (Ouchterlony 1988).The main purpose of this comparison was to show the clear reduction of the ultimate failure load,which resulted in a reduction of Mode I stress intensity due to rock fatigue.An attempt was made to show that crack propagation causing failure was possible with lower stress intensity values (K I )at the crack tip than the previously determined (static)critical stress intensity value (K IC ).This result goes against the classical theory,which predicts that there will be no crack growth as long as K I is less than K IC .According toTable 2b and h values for Brisbane tuff,granite and

CCNBDspecimensFig.10Number of load cycles illustrating cyclic loadingFracturing of Rocks Under Static and Cyclic Loading 1041the test results,the maximum reduction in the static K IC of 46%(from1.12to0.61MPa H m)was obtained with the highest amplitude increasing cyclic loading:that is,1.8kN (40%SUL).This reduction has implications for the investigation of the effect of cyclic loading on the fracture resistance of rock cracks.A second series of diametral increasing cyclic com-pressive loading tests was performed on27CCNBD Brisbane tuff specimens with crack inclination angles b of 30°,45°and60°,tested under amplitudes of0.45,0.9and 1.35kN.Load and CMOD values were recorded continu-ously up to the failure of the specimens.The failure load and the number of cycles for each inclined crack,tested under various amplitudes of cyclic loading,are shown in Table3.The results show that the failure load obtained on increasing cyclic loading decreased between30and45% compared with the values obtained under static loading.According to their initiation position,wing cracks can be classified as upper external wing cracks,lower external wing cracks or fatigue cracks(see Fig.11).Upper and lower external wing cracks were observed in all specimens tested,and most of them propagated to the top and bottom edges of the disc specimens at an angle to the crack plane. However,fatigue cracks did not propagate along a typical path;some of them propagated parallel to the notched crack plane and some propagated at an angle.Further, because brittle fracture occurred rapidly under the load-controlled testing,it was not possible to separate the crack initiation and propagation stages.Thus,it was difficult to determine whether external wing cracks were initiated and propagated before fatigue cracks formed.It was believed that,for static loading,increasing the Mode II loading of a specimen initiated wing cracksfirst.Even though tensile wing fractures were initiated,a secondary fracture is instigated with an increasing shear load(Hussain and Pu 1974).However,mixed-mode fracturing is evident,and different mechanisms contribute to crack propagation under cyclic loading.An interestingfinding from the inclined notched crack increasing cyclic loading tests was the absence of post-peak strain softening,while this was observed in the Mode I cyclic loading tests.Figure12shows the load–CMOD and CMOD versus number of cycles plots for b=30°CCNBD specimens under diametral increasing cyclic compressive loading with an amplitude of0.45kN at10% of SUL.The load–CMOD plots showed irreversible strain accumulation with a decreasing crack mouth opening rate, prior to the crack opening at a faster rate up to failure(see Fig.14b).Figure13shows the load–CMOD and CMOD–number of cycles plots for b=45°CCNBD specimens under diametral increasing cyclic compressive loading with an amplitude of0.45kN at10%of SUL.These tests showed the development of wing cracks and fatigue cracks similar to those seen for b=30°.However,more fatigue cracks were initiated and were closer to the centre of the notched crack at this angle,rather than close to the tip of the not-ched crack and almost parallel to the notched crack plane. The fatigue cracks can interact and coalesce with one another to produce continuous plastic strain accumulation and form crushed or small particles,different from the more brittle failure mechanism seen on static loading.Interestingly,the b=45°inclined notched cracks were found to open right up to failure in all three increasing cyclic compressive loading test repeats,while under static loading the b=45°inclined notched cracks closed right up to failure.This behaviour was also observed for some b=30°and60°inclined pared to the static damage mechanism for the b=45°inclined notched crack,a different fatigue damage mechanism would be expected under cyclic loading in front of the tip of the b=45°inclined notched crack.The possible fatigue damage mechanism is described in Sect.5.Examples of the load–CMOD,CMOD–number of cycles and the axial dis-placement–number of cycles plots for the b=45°inclined notched crack under various amplitudes of increasing cyclic compressive loading tests are shown in Fig.14.The results for b=60°inclined notched crack speci-mens are shown in Fig.15,which are similar to the wing and fatigue crack trajectories obtained for the b=30°,45°and60°inclined notched cracks.However,fatigue crack propagation trajectories at the tips of the b=60°inclined notched crack was more parallel to the notched crack plane compared with those for b=30°and45°.Some of the b=60°inclined notched cracks were found to open right up to failure under increasing cyclic compressive loading as shown in Fig.16.Test results for inclined notched cracks under increasing cyclic compressive loading show that the typical CMOD response is different from the response to static loading.It is hard to understand and explain how the b=60°inclined notched crack can open right up to failure under cyclic loading,while this angle has been determined to be a crack closing angle under static loading.These results clearly show that different damage mechanisms take place in front of the inclined notched crack due to rock fatigue on cyclic loading.5Numerical Simulations and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM)Analysis5.1Numerical ModellingA series offinite element simulations were conducted to model notched crack initiation and propagation under static1042N.Erarslan,D.J.Williams。

九日山摩崖石刻危岩体成因分析及加固工作方法论述

1引言石窟寺和石刻是石质文物类型中非常重要的两大分支,一类是天然岩体上直接雕凿的图像、文字等形成的文化遗存,另一类是在不同岩性上开挖建造的石窟寺,石窟寺和石刻岩石材料几乎涵盖了岩石的各大类型。

岩石依据其地质成因可将其划分为岩浆岩、沉积岩和变质岩三大类。

岩浆岩可分为喷出岩及侵入岩,喷出岩类岩石表面多孔洞,不利于雕刻成型,所以,以该类岩石为材料的石刻、造像及石质文物数量不多,侵入岩类的石质文物岩石类型最具代表性的无疑是花岗岩,而本文阐述的九日山摩崖石刻就是南方典型的以花岗岩为雕刻材料的石刻类型。

据志书记载,九日山历代均有石刻。

唐代以来不少文人墨客的墨迹留在岩壁间,因年代久远,或因风化磨灭,或因流土积埋,或因人为之因,部分已难寻踪迹,但其核心之石刻保存完好。

九日山现存古代摩崖石刻共77方,年代从北宋早期至清朝乾隆时期,反映海外交通的祈风石刻10方,记载从北宋崇宁三年(1104年)至南宋咸淳二年(1266年)泉州郡守偕市舶官员为番船祈风,预祝一帆风顺、满载而归的史实。

In this article, we will explore some of the most common challenges faced by rock climbers.One of the primary challenges in rock climbing is the unpredictable nature of the terrain. Each climbing route presents its unique set of obstacles, such as steep cliffs, narrow ledges, or overhanging rocks. Climbers must carefully analyze the route, plan their moves, and adjust their techniques accordingly. This requires a high level of concentration and problem-solving skills.Another challenge in rock climbing is the physical demands it places on the climber's body. Climbing requires strength, flexibility, and endurance. Holding onto small handholds and footholds for extended periods can be physically exhausting. Climbers must build up their upper body and core strength to tackle difficult routes successfully. Regular training and conditioning are essential to overcome these physical challenges. Fear and mental resilience are also significant challenges in rock climbing. Climbing heights can trigger fear and anxiety in even the most experienced climbers. Overcoming this fear requires mental resilience, focus, and confidence. Climbers must learn to manage their emotions and stay calm in stressful situations. Developing a positive mindset and trusting one's abilities are crucial in conquering these mental challenges. Weather conditions are another factor that adds complexity to rock climbing. Outdoor climbers must consider factors such as temperature, wind speed, and precipitation before attempting a climb. Unfavorable weather conditions can make the rock slippery or increase the risk of falling. Climbers must be prepared to adapt their plans or postpone their climbs if the weather becomes unfavorable.Equipment failure is yet another challenge that rock climbers may face. The safety of climbers heavily relies on their gear, including ropes, harnesses, and carabiners. Regular equipment inspections and maintenance are necessary to prevent accidents due to equipment failure. Climbers must also be knowledgeable about the proper use of their gear and ensure that it is in good working condition before every climb.In conclusion, rock climbing presents a wide range of challenges that climbers must overcome to succeed. From navigating difficult terrains to building physical strength and mental resilience, climbers need to be prepared for the obstacles they may encounter. By embracing these challenges and continuously improving their skills, climbers can experience the thrill and satisfaction of reaching new heights in the world of rock climbing.。

tests are available to obtain discontinuity properties. Testing in large quantities is, however, time consuming and troublesome. Continuum calculations for engineering structures in or on a rock mass, whether analytical or numerical, cannot be appropriate, as the simplifications needed to present the rock mass as a continuum are so substantial that it is nearly always highly questionable to what extent the final calculation model still represents reality. Discontinuous ’distinct block’ numerical calculations can model the discontinuities and calculate the behaviour of a rock mass in all detail, provided that property data are available. Apart from the need to have powerful computers to do the large number of calculations required by the vast quantity of discontinuities, the test data needed for a detailed numerical discontinuous calculation are never available. An often applied practice to avoid these problems is to simplify the discontinuity model, and estimate or
The classification system is based on a three step classification system and allows for correction for weathering (Hack et al., 1996, 1997a) and excavation disturbance (Hack, 1996). The system classifies rock mass parameters in one or more exposures (step 1). These parameters are corrected for the influence of weathering and excavation disturbance in the exposures and parameters important for the mechanical behaviour of a the rock mass in an imaginary unweathered and undisturbed ’reference’ rock mass are calculated. The slope stability assessment thence allows assessment of the stability of the existing or any new slope in the ’reference rock mass’, with allowance for any influence of excavation method to be used for the new slope, and future weathering. This procedure allows a rock mass assessment based on rock mass parameters that are independent from local weathering and excavation disturbance as found in the exposures, but allows for the influence of future weathering on the rock mass at the location of the slope and the disturbance caused by the method of excavation used for the slope (Hack, 1996).

guess the properties or to use literature values. To what extent the result is still representative for the real situation is a question that often remains unanswered.
ABSTRACT: The strength of a rock mass for foundation purposes is for a large part determined by the discontinuities in the rock mass. Numerical calculations of discontinuous rock masses prove often to be cumbersome and unreliable. Rock mass classification may be an equal or more reliable methodology. The Slope Stability Probability Classification (SSPC) system designed for slope stability may be used for this purpose. The system has been developed during four years of research in Falset, province Tarragona, Spain. The rock slope classification scheme assesses orientation dependent and orientation independent stability. The orientation independent stability assessment leads to a rock mass strength criterion based on classification data, e.g. intact rock strength, discontinuity spacing and discontinuity condition. The criterion is developed in the context of a slope stability classification system, however, there is no reason that the criterion is not also valid for the determination of rock mass strength for other purposes, such as foundations on a discontinuous rock mass. The results of the strength criterion are compared to the results of the ’modified Hoek-Brown strength criterion’ and to the rock mass strength as determined by Bieniawski’s classification system.
2 ROCK MASS CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMS
An altogether different approach to assess the engineering behaviour of a rock mass is rock mass classification. In a classification system empirical relations between rock mass properties and the behaviour of the rock mass in relation to a particular engineering application, are combined to give a method of designing engineering structures in or on a rock mass. Rock mass classification has been applied successfully for some years in tunnelling and underground mining in, for example, Southern Africa, Scandinavia and Canada (Barton, 1976, 1988, Bieniawski, 1989, Laubscher, 1990). Some rock mass classification systems (Bieniawski, 1989, Hack et al., 1993, 1996, Hoek et al., 1992, Serafim et al., 1983) result in empirical strength criteria for a rock mass.
