CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTIONRock mechanics engineers design structures built in rock for various purposes, and therefore need to determine the properties and behavior of the rock. The UCS of rocks is one of the important input parameters used in rock engineering projects such as design of underground spaces, rock blasting, drilling, slope stability analysis, excavations and many other civil and mining operations. ISRM (1981) testing of this mechanical property in the laboratory is a si ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 3 ]CHAPTER TWO2.0 LITERATURE REVIEW A literature review revealed that most of the empirical equations introduced for determination of the Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) of rocks based on the Schmidt hammer rebound number (N) are not sufficiently reliable mostly due to the relatively low coefficient of correlations. This is attributed to the fact that in most cases one formula is used for all types of rocks, although the density of rocks is introduced to the formulae in some cases. On the ... Continue reading---

The way in which research is to be undertaken and among other things, identifies the methods to be used in it. These methods, described in the methodology, define the means or mode of data collection or sometimes, how a specific result is to be calculated. Methodology also is the systematic theoretical analysis of the methods applied to a field of study.Therefore, the N ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER FOUR - [ Total Page(s): 7 ]The result obtained for the uniaxial compressive strength range from lowest value to the highest value which is 1.15×1040mpa respectively. Base on the standard present by Deere and Miller (1966) and ASTM (2001). The mean value obtain which is6.22×1040mpa made the marble to be classified as a rock with very low strength. 4.3 DISCUSSION The average rebound value was used trace the UCS with the corresponding bulk density in figure (4.1.1). The result shows that the uniaxial comp ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FIVE5.0 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION5.1 CONCLUSIONThe need to test rock in order to determine their physical and mechanical properties cannot be overemphasized .However , laboratory testing procedures and equipment may be required to do this for engineering project .Hence, the Schmidt rebound hammer (RN) has being used by many researchers to measure the strength and other engineering properties of rocks. This usually enables a quick and easy means of measurement. Marble be ... Continue reading---
