Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Human settlement is destroyed by debris flow and many casualties are claimed. Thus, it is important to study not only the shear strength reduced by weathering but also softening of stress-strain behavior after peak strength. In this regard, laboratory studies were performed, chemical weathering was reproduced and the decay of tested material were investigated on natural rocks as well as mixing sand, lime, gypsum and water at a specified ratio and cured for a certain time. Prepared specimens were submerged in acidic water with ph = 4 or 5 and the particle-to-particle bonding was destroyed chemically. Then, unconfined compression tests were run on samples with different extents of chemical weathering. Using the measured stress-strain relationship, study was made of the decay of the peak strength and the softening behavior that followed the peak. Moreover, point load tests were conducted to investigate more profoundly a number of weathered rock pieces.
