Effect of rock properties on the Los Angeles abrasion and impact test characteristics of the aggregates
I. Ugur,S. Demirdag,H. Yavuz +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple equation predicting the LAAI value based on each rock property was suggested, which was found to be significant in estimating the LAI values of rocks, such as uniaxial compressive strength, point load index, and indirect tensile strength.

Aggregate properties of Devonian limestones for use in concrete in Istanbul, Turkey
I. H. Zarif,Atiye Tugrul +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the physico-mechanical properties of limestones of different compositions and textures were determined and the results were compared with those from standard aggregate tests, and the relationships between all parameters were described by simple regression analyses.

Stress deformation properties of rock and rock discontinuities
TL;DR: The results of an extensive literature survey on the stress deformation properties of rock materials and rock discontinuities are summarized in this paper, showing that the effects of nonlinearity and stress-dependency of the rock modulus are minor with hard, crystalline or homogeneous rock of low porosity, but are significant in porous, clastic or closely jointed rock.
