(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2016)
The article presents the monuments from the Czech Republic enlisted on the UNESCO World Heritage Site List. Each country tries to choose representative sites and monuments that document the structural and architectural ...
Effect of surface void percentage (SVP) on the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of porous rocks
(GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBL HOUSE, 2018)
In this paper, the effect of areal void size on unconfined compressive strength (UCS) depending on the core diameter is investigated and discussed in terms of obtaining more accurate and reliable strength values relating ...
