ASTM 2938
This equipment is used for determining unconfined compressive strength of intact rock core specimens.
The rock sample is cut to length and the ends are machined flat. The specimen is placed in a loading frame
and if required heated to the desired test temperature. Axial load is continuously increased on the
specimen until peak load and failure are obtained.
The equipment consist of the following replaceable parts :
