Get PriceThe assessment of the modulus of elasticity and compressive strength of masonry is a fundamental step in the seismic analysis of existing structures. In this paper, the representativeness of the values provided by flat-jack tests for tuff masonry is investigated through the analysis of a very large and homogeneous number of tests (635 double flat-jack tests).

Get PriceThe uniaxial compressive strength of air-dry and water-saturated ashfall tuff from the Nevada Test Site was measured as a function of strain rate from 10{sup {minus}6} to 10{sup 3} s{sup {minus}1}. Two different testing devices were used to achieve this wide range in rate, an electro-hydraulic

Get Pricetuff will increase the long term compressive strength. If the volcanic tuff is able to grind finer, the compressive strength might reach higher value C) Fluid Loss Test Higher Fluid loss indicates that the when cement is pumped into the well, it might require secondary cementing. The fluid will escape faster from cement and cause the hole to slough. In the fluid lost test, OFITE LPLT is
Get PriceThe compressive strengths for the tuff specimens were normalized with respect to an estimated 0% porosity strength value through a regression analysis (Eq. (3)). All of the normalized data is presented in Fig. 4 along with a best-fit regression curve.The best-fit regression curve is:N r c ¼ 0:954 À 0:15/ 2 R 2 ¼ 0:90ð4Þwhere N r c is the normalized compressive strength.
