Estimation of the strength of Nubian sandstone formation from point load test index and other simple parameters
This study investigates the correlation of the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and the point load test (PLT) index Is(50), bulk density, water absorption and the RQD properties of the Sudanese Nubian sandstone formation. The UCS being is the rock property needed in engineering practice but its d...
