Instruction manual for the use of the CSIR triaxial rock stress measuring equipment
Abstract
A guide is presented for users of an instrument designed to measure the state of stress at any one point in a rock mass. The overscoring technique used to determine the absolute stress is described as well as equipment components. A computer program for processing the data is discussed and the equations on which the program is based are given.
