Price: $115
About this Course

This course covers the determination of the strength of intact rock core specimens in uniaxial and triaxial compression. Methods A and B determine the triaxial compressive strength at different pressures and Methods C and D determine the unconfined, uniaxial strength.

This course includes downloadable resources including a procedural outline and a pdf of the standard, instructional video content, interactive knowledge checks, and a self-grading quiz. The course can be completed in about one hour.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Identify apparatus and the methods for which they are used when determining the strength of intact rock core specimens in uniaxial and triaxial compression.
  • Define safety precautions as outlined for ASTM D7012.
  • Recognize steps for test specimen selection and preparation.
  • Recall procedures for determination of the strength of intact rock core specimens in uniaxial and triaxial compression, including those for confining stress.
  • Identify calculation requirements, including calculation of axial train and uniaxial compressive strength and plotting the stress-versus-strain curve.
  • Recognize reporting requirements as outlined for ASTM D7012.
