The average uniaxial compressive strength of Set A is approximately 33.3 MPa, which is close to the original compressive strength. A linear relationship was discovered between the strength and the number of segments. The uniaxial compressive strength of the sandstone specimens decreased with an increase in the number of fractures.

One of the parameters which affect the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rock materials is the length to diameter ratio (L/D) of test cores. ASTM recommends a ratio of between 2 and 2.5, and ISRM suggests 2.5–3:1. Research has shown that high UCS values are obtained for L/D ratios <2, a very slight difference in values between 2 …
