Original scientific paper To analyse the influence of joint angle, number and spacing on the strength and acoustic emission (AE) characteristics of rock mass, the uniaxial compression model of rock specimens was established using the micro particle flow PFC2D software platform. The intact rock parameters were determined via trial and error, joints with different angles, numbers and spacing were...

Abstract Shear Strength of jointed rock plays a significant role in the stability mass structure especially if developments plan to be constructed adjacent this formation. However, get shear strength joints is quite costly and difficult identified directly at site. This research conducted establish relationship between uniaxial compressive (UCS) granitic rock. UCS parameters are easily common p...
