In rock mechanics, various
methods are available to detect the rock properties. The aim of this study is
to determine physical and mechanical properties of the serpentinized ultrabasic
rocks such as Eğirdir-Kızıldağ Harzburgitic Peridotites. The serpentinized
ultrabasic rocks are commonly used for architecture and the ground under road
bases in many areas and also widely used for indoor elements such as tables, pilasters
and ornaments of different kinds. In this study, geophysical and geotechnical
tests including P and S- wave velocities, rigidity modulus, Poisson ratio,
elasticity modulus, bulk modulus, natural period, safe bearing capacity and
bedding coefficient were performed on nine rock samples, collected from
different areas. Geophysical and geotechnical studies were carried out both
parallel and perpendicular to foliation planes of the cubic samples. Ultrasonic
P-Wave Velocity (UPV), Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS), volumetric water
contents, effective porosity, unit volume weight, density and weight of all
samples were calculated. Finally, statistical relations among the measured
parameters were established by using regression analysis.
