True Triaxial Strength Testing of Sandstones

Laboratory rock mechanical tests allow estimation of rock strength and deformation behaviour under stress states similar to the in-situ conditions. In general, the in-situ stresses are described by three principal stresses, the vertical, maximum and minimum horizontal stresses. However, most of rock...
