The relationship between geomechanical properties and weathering indices of granitic rocks, Hamedan, Iran
In order to assess the relationships between geomechanical properties of weathered granitic rocks, physical and mechanical analysis were performed on tonalite, hololeucogranite and porphiroid monzogranite of the Hamedan area of the west Iran. The purpose of this study is to apply correlation analysis to investigate the relationships between petrographical, physical and mechanical properties of granitic rocks. The results suggest that the brazilian test, slake durability, dry and saturated unit weight, porosity, sonic velocity, water absorption and petrographic studies, effectively revealed changes of the degree of weathering. A tentative correlation between these properties is presented.
