Abstract

This paper presents the problems associated with the complete stress-strain characteristics of the destruction of rocks under load, in the full range of their strain. The most important factors influencing the course of a stress-strain curve are discussed, i.e.: the shape and size of samples and the conditions experienced when conducting the experiment in a testing machine. Presented mechanical and energy parameters were obtained in laboratory tests carried out by loading rock samples in a servo controlled testing machine as well as some indices devised on the basis of these parameters. The interpretation of complete stress-strain characteristics allow solve various issues connected with underground mining, especially assessing natural hazards which are common in underground mining for minerals, as well as designing and managing mining works within underground workings.
