Empirical estimation of the uniaxial compressive strength from the point load test in anisotropic rocks (schists and shales)

In this paper new empirical relationships are developed between uniaxial compressive strength and point load index Is(50) in anisotropic rocks, particularly in schists and shales. We have used data from 2015 point load tests and 229 uniaxial compressive strength tests performed in anisotropic rocks...
