A parameter m in the Hoek-Brown criterion indicates how the type of rock affects the criterion's strength. It is anticipated that the rock will be stronger with a greater value of m. Using the values of m provided in the question and comparing the peak compressive strengths of granite, rhyolite, and marble with each other, qu = 100MPa For marble (m = 7): peak compressive strength =? For rhyolite (m =17): peak compressive strength =? For granite (m = 25): peak compressive strength =?

What is the equivalent constrained modulus in psf if the initial stress is 418 psf, the change in stress is 1204 psf, and the maximum past pressure is 418 psf? The initial void ratio is 1.29. The compression index is 0.26.
Samples from sandstone were collected from two different depths (80m and 200m) and triaxial shearing tests were performed to estimate the shear strength parameters. From each depth, two different specimens were tests at distinct isotropic confining pressures and from the experiments the deviatoric stress at failure was assessed. The results from these experiments are summarized in Table 1.1.
