A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
A suite of eight rock types commonly used in rock mechanics research has been obtained from quarries in oriented lots, and are being distributed as one-cubic foot blocks to ARPA participants at their request. Mechanical property testing is underway on all eight ARPA rock types. A manuscript for reporting the test results is underway. A comprehensive listing of rock property data obtained from Bureau of Mines and outside literature review on rock classification for engineering purposes has been completed, and development of a qualitative rock classification system is underway.
