Abstract
Various methods have been proposed to indirectly assess the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of intact rock when drilled cores are not available. Indentation test (IT) and point load test (PLT) are the two widely used methods in the field to assess the rock strength by penetrating the irregular blocky fragments. The TBM muck produced by excavation contains a great number of blocky fragments which are suitable for an IT or a PLT. To use the IT...
