Effect of freeze-thaw cycle on strength and rock strength parameters (A Lushan sandstone case study)
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
In an era of continued economic development around the globe, numerous rock-related projects including mining and gas/oil exploration are undertaken in regions with cold climates. Winters in the Iranian western and northwestern provinces are characterized by a high precipitation rate and a cold weather. Under such conditions, rocks are exposed to long freezing periods and several freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles. It is thus necessary to examine the impact of these cycles on the physical and mechanical properties of rocks. Considering the abundant sandstone resources in Iran, in this work, we focused on the Lushan sandstone by investigating the effects of F-T cycles and freezing temperatures on the uniaxial and triaxial compressive strengths, cohesion, internal friction angle, and elastic modulus of the rocks. To study the impact of the number of F-T cycles on the strength of rocks, the specimens frozen at -16 °C were subjected to 1, 4, 8, 16, and 32 F-T cycles. Similar tests were also carried out on the specimens frozen at -24 °C. Furthermore, a number of tests were undertaken at the ambient temperature (25 °C) on specimens that did not undergo an F-T cycle. According to the results obtained, an increase in the number of F-T cycles and freezing temperatures reduced the uniaxial and triaxial compressive strengths, cohesion, internal friction angle, and elastic modulus due to the growth of the existing cracks and the nucleation of new cracks in the rock. Consequently, the effective porosity increased, whereas the dry specific gravity decreased with more F-T cycles and lower freezing temperatures.

In order to study the application of lime-fly ash loess in permafrost subgrade engineering, uniaxial compressive test, fast direct shearing test and permeability tests were carried out on lime-fly ash loess under different curing ages and freeze-thaw cycles. Uniaxial compressive strength of lime-fly ash loess increases slowly with the curing ages, and can reach 3.5 Mpa after the curing ages of ...

Results: The experiment results indicate that the type of recycled aggregate and its replacement ratio have significant effects on the freezethaw performance. The cubic compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete is overall slightly lower than that of normal concrete. After 100 freeze-thaw cycles, the compressive strength decreases and the reduction extent increases with increasing repl...
