Influence of cyclic wetting and drying using acid solution on mechanical properties of rock slope weathered sandstone / Muhammad Faris Qusyairi Hamat
A geotechnical structure need to consider the strength of rock mass structure to ensure its stability is adequate for sustainable structures. There are many type of strength parameters of rock mass structures that need to be justified before construction of tunnels, rock slope and underground subway...
