Effects of existing fractures in rocks on extension of hydraulic fractures
Effect of existing fracture or joint plane, which may exist in rock, on extension of hydraulically-induced fracture through rock has been investigated in laboratory, by use of series of models made from various outcrop rocks; width and orientation of existing fractures do not alter extension or direction of hydraulic fracture; results, which conform quite well with Griffith theory of failure, are illustrated by photographs.
