Summary
In this subject students are at the first acquaint with relation between rock
mass – rock
samples – rock specimen. In the chapter physical properties are definition of
different rock properties, their measurement and using in practical
calculations. Soil classification according grain size and according water
content, which influence soil behaviour. Mechanical properties mean in the
first place strength characteristics. Strength properties are estimated for
simple loading, like compressive, tensile shear loading and also for combined
loading.
