Develop a peak strength criterion for the quartzite for use in underground excavation
design. Experience has shown that the in situ uniaxial compressive strength of the
quartzite is one-half the laboratory value.
5 A series of triaxial compression tests on specimens of a slate gave the following
results:
2.0 62.0 40
5.0 62.5 32
10.0 80.0 37
15.0 95.0 39
20.0 104.0 27
In each test, failure occurred by shear along the cleavage. Determine the shear
strength criterion for the cleavage planes.
6 In a further series of tests on the slate for which the data of Problem 5 were obtained,
it was found that, when failure occurred in directions other than along the cleavage,
the peak strength of the rock material was given by
1 = 150 + 2.83
