Crushing Strength Of Trachyte Volcanic Rock Worldcrushers
Other articles where Crushing strength is discussed compressive strength test The crushing strength of concrete, determined by breaking a cube, and often called the cube strength, reaches values of about 3 tons per square inch, that of granite 10 tons per square inch, and that of cast iron from 25 to 60 tons per square inch.In general, rock mass strength depends on the strength of intact rock and the strength of rockdiscontinuities. In general, compared to intact rock, a rock mass has reduced tensile strength(almost zero), and reduced shear strength especially along discontinuity planes. Further ,if a rock mass is cut by directional joint sets, the rock mass strength is anisotropic. Rock massstrength is scale dependent and varies with the volume of rock.
