Use of the point load index in estimation of the strength rating for the RMR system
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)
The Rock Mass Rating (RMR) system is a worldwide reference for design applications involving estimation of rock mass properties and tunnel support. in the RMR system, Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) is an important ...
Utilization of the limit equilibrium and finite element methods for the stability analysis of the slope debris: An example of the Kalebasi District (NE Turkey)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)
The stability of the slope debris in residential area of the Kalebasi District (Ozkurtun-Gumushane) was investigated using the Limit Equilibrium (LE) and Finite Element Shear-Strength Reduction (FE-SSR) methods. Along the ...
Effect of the specimen length on ultrasonic P-wave velocity in some volcanic rocks and limestones
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)
Ultrasonic P-wave velocity (UPV) is commonly used in different fields such as civil, mining, geotechnical, and rock engineering. One of the significant parameters which affect the UPV of rock materials is likely to be the ...
Understanding the mechanism of slope failure on a nearby highway tunnel route by different slope stability analysis methods: a case from NE Turkey
(Springer Heidelberg, 2016)
The Arakli tunnel is located in the eastern Black Sea region where the most mass movement is observed in Turkey. Following the tunnel entrance portal excavations in basaltic tuffs on nearby the Konakonu residential area, ...
Stability assessment of high-steep cut slope debris on a landslide (Gumushane, NE Turkey)
(Springer Heidelberg, 2016)
The objective of this study was to examine the effects on the stability of slope debris of planned slope excavations around the vicinity of Gumushane Imam-Hatip High School in NE Turkey. To assess the geotechnical properties ...
Utilizing the strength conversion factor in the estimation of uniaxial compressive strength from the point load index
(Springer Heidelberg, 2016)
The strength conversion factor (k) is the ratio between the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and the point load index (PLI). It has been used to estimate the UCS from the PLI since the 1960s. Many researchers have ...
Geotechnical assessment of a slope stability problem in the Citlakkale residential area (Giresun, NE Turkey)
(Springer Heidelberg, 2017)
Because of the rapidly growing population, new settlement areas are required, and finding an appropriate location is always difficult, especially in mountainous areas. in these regions, efficient use of the existing ...
Geotechnical investigations and remediation design for failure of tunnel portal section: a case study in northern Turkey
(Science Press, 2017)
Mass movements are very common problems in the eastern Black Sea region of Turkey due to its climate conditions, geological, and geomorphological characteristics. High slope angle, weathering, dense rainfalls, and anthropogenic ...
Bearing capacity and slope stability assessment of rock masses at the Subasi viaduct site, NE, Turkey
(Springer Heidelberg, 2018)
This study investigates the bearing capacity of rock masses and stability of slopes at the Subasi viaduct site which is a part of the improvement project of the Artvin-Hopa government highway between KM 6 + 500 and 13 + ...
Comparing the pozzolanic activity properties of obsidian to those of fly ash and blast furnace slag
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018)
The use of pozzolan in cement provides economic advantages and improves the physico-mechanical properties of cement. Fly ash and blast furnace slag are widely used in cement as pozzolanic materials. in this study, obsidian ...
