The Effect of Horizontal Smooth Joints on Strength and Deformability of Sandstone

The Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) and deformability of jointed rock are required to design structures on or in jointed rock mass. These rock masses depend on the number and orientation of joints. In this study, horizontal smooth joints were created in intact sandstone samples by cutting and gr...
