Prediction of end
Existing empirical methods for determining the end-bearing capacity, q max, use empirical relations between q max and the unconfined compressive strength of intact rock, σ cAs rock-socketed shafts are supported by the rock mass, not just the intact rock, one should consider not only the intact rock properties, but also the influence of discontinuities on rock mass properties when determining ....
