Unconfined Compression Test |
A recorded testing process of another basalt specimen is presented in the video below. Calculations . The axial strain is calculated as: ε a = Δl / L 0. Where ε a: Axial strain, Δl: Change in measured axial length and L 0: The initial length of the sample. The diametric strain is calculated as: ε d = Δ d / D 0
