physical, electrical and MECHANİCAL PROPERTİES OF GRANITIC AND LİMESTONE ROCKS WITH EMPHASIS TO THEIR CHEMICAL COMPOSITION

Abstract

The mechanİcal, physical and electrical properties in addition to the chemical constitution have been measured for some samples of the most common roeks; granite and limestone. Besi- des, factor analysis was applİed giving rise to four specific factors controlling the mechanİcal behaviors of each rock type. In granite; the two most common factors measure the degree of rock compactness in terms of density, porosity and chemical constitution (Fe, Ca, K and Cr) and correlate the relation between mechanİcal, electrical and chemical constitution. Also, the limestone rock exhibits two most common factors. The first one measures the electrical pro- perties in terms of porosity and other chemical elements such as: Ti and K, while the second factor measures the degree of silicification in terms of both Ca and Si.
