THE UNIAXIAL COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF SOFT ROCK

The term soft rock is often referred to rock materials with a uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) lower than that of hard rocks and higher than that of soils. A rock material can be classified as a soft rock if it has a uniaxial compressive strength below 20 MPa, determined directly by uniaxial compression tests [1, 2, 3, 4].
