This Standard sets out the method for determining the uniaxial compressive strength of a rock sample in the form of specimens of regular geometry of strength less than 50 MPa. The test is intended for strength classification and characterization of intact rock.NOTE: Where the measured strength using this method exceeds 50 MPa this method may result in a measured strength that is less than the strength obtained in test method AS 4133.4.2.1.CAUTION: SOME OF THE TESTS SPECIFIED IN THIS STANDARD INVOLVE THE USE OF PROCESSES THAT COULD LEAD TO A HAZARDOUS SITUATION.
