dc.description.abstract |
Durability is used to depict the obstruction of rock to weathering and the pace of events of
such changes. Wetting and drying cycles cause evaluation of physical changes and slaking
behaviour of rocks, and that can be appraised by the slake durability test. Correlations
between durability, mineralogy, and other physical-mechanical properties are different with
the rock. Physical and mechanical characteristics of High-grade limestone samples and Lowgrade
limestone samples from the Aruwakkalu mine were determined according to ASTM
standard methods. X-ray diffractometer (XRD) analysis and scanning electron microscope
(SEM) analysis were used to determine the mineralogical contents of the studied samples.
Regression analyses were performed between the slake durability index and the physicalmechanical
properties of limestones to identify the best wetting and drying cycle to assess
the relationships. Differences between the physical, mechanical properties, and mineralogical
contents of High-grade limestone and Low-grade limestone were also identified from the
laboratory test results. Finally, this study will help to understand any rock engineering
problem relating to durability, mineralogy, and other physical-mechanical properties of
areas with limestone. |
