Determination of uniaxial compressive strength using point load index of high grade metamorphic rocks from western Sri Lanka

Thushanthan, K; Udayantha, BVM; Chathuranga, SAKS; Dissanayaka, VAKA; Karunananthasivam, L; Jayasekara, JMEPK; Puswawela, UGA; Samaradivakara, GVI [Conference-Full-text]

This research is focused on finding the correlation of unconfined compressive strength (UCS) with Point load Index (PLI) of gneissic rocks, and to propose proper correlating value, based on a study carried out for Sri ...
Use of the block punch and point load tests to predict the compressive strength of gneissic rocks, with particular reference to the size effect

Pitawela, EWMHRB; Priyan, SPD; Kumara, HMAP; Vijayarathan, K; Maduranga, HGS; Dassanayake, ABN [Conference-Full-text]

Various correlations have been established with regard to rock strength indices for different types of rocks around the world. In Sri Lanka, having several types of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks, least attempt has been ...
