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 ...

The aim of the study is to evaluate the warming effect (thermal contamination) of city centres with high building density. This phenomenon has a number of scientific and practical implications. The case study was conducted ...

The Core Strangle Test (CST) has been proposed in 2009 by author as an index test permitting indirect estimation of the Uniaxial Compressive Strength. In this test, load is applied through a circle perpendicular to the ...
