Rock Variability Triaxial PDF

This document discusses establishing appropriate confining pressure levels for triaxial compression tests on rock samples. It examines how rock properties like strength, mineral composition, and discontinuities can cause variability between samples. The authors analyze data from triaxial tests on sandstone and marble to determine typical effective confining stress ranges needed to better understand rock behavior under different loading conditions.
