Predicting Uniaxial Compression Strength (UCS) Using Bulk Density for Kuala Lumpur Granite and Limestone
In engineering practice particularly in measuring strength properties of rock, uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is considered as one of the key in characterizing rock material. However, sometime it is quite difficult or impossible to full fill the test requirement especially when dealing with rock that consists of discontinuities or fractures. Samples that were sent to laboratory for UCS test sometime have not enough length due to breakage during coring process in drilling activities or during transportation. In order to overcome this problem, a study was carried out to use simple method of testing as an alternative to predict the strength. Bulk density test of rock sample is one of the simple measurements that can be used to predict the UCS. The values of UCS can be correlated with the corresponding bulk density of the rock. In this study a total of 73 samples consisted of 29 granite and 44 limestone were used for UCS and bulk density test. The significant of the bulk density as variable in the correlation was evaluated in the T-test responding by P-value. Both P-value and least squares regression (R2) showed the strong relation between UCS and bulk density of granite and limestone sample. The finding from experimental works and statistical analysis showed that, this study preceded a reliable method to predict the UCS of rock using bulk density.
