Measurement of the point load strength I s and of the indirect C 0 The uniaxial compressive strength C 0 is then indirectly obtained by using the empirical relationship: where I s(50) is the point load strength of 50 mm (2 in.) diameter cores UCS =C×Is (50) IS (50) = F × IS 0.45 50 F = De C = (14 + 0. 175 D)
to a UCS test. The point load test allows the determination of the uncorrected point load strength index (Is). It must be corrected to the standard equivalent diameter (De) of 50 mm. If the core being tested is "near" 50 mm in diameter (like NX core), the correction is not necessary. The procedure for size correction

Uniaxial compressive strength and point load tests were carried out on 17 igneous, 16 metamorphic and 19 sedimentary rocks and the values correlated with their I s values.
Point Load test is an alternate method that can be used to adequately predict the uniaxial compressive strength of a rock material using a portable and simpler equipment. Schmidt Hammer Rebound test is also a technique used for this purpose but, it is admitted that its results are far more variable and affected by testing methods.
To fulfill these objectives, 36 uniaxial compressive strength tests, 36 Brazilian splitting tests, and 48 point load tests were carried out. The samples were tested in air dry, water saturated ...
Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is a key physical test relevant to iron ore crusher design and rock geomechanics for mining. Tests are typically performed on intact lengths of NQ, HQ, or PQ diamond drill core and record the maximum axial load sustained at the point of failure.

Point load testing is used to determine rock strength indexes in geotechnical practice. The point load test apparatus and procedure enables economical testing of core or lump rock samples in either a field or laboratory setting. In order to estimate uniaxial compressive strength, index-to-strength …
strength and point load index were obtained according to their orientation with respect to the planes of anisotropy, so that the majority of angles were covered between = 0º to = 90º. It is found that there is no direct relationship between uniaxial compressive strength and Is(50), hence it is unreli-
The Point load test is an index test by which the rock is classified according to the strength. The test can be used to estimate other characteristics of intact rocks with which it correlates, such as uniaxial compressive and tensile strength. The test determines the strength index values at a point (Is (50)) and the anisotropy index (Ia (50)).
