DEVELOPMENT OF A METHOD FOR TESTING SALT ROCKS ON A UNIVERSAL TEST MACHINE ZWICK Z050
Direct extension experiments of sylvinite specimens, which sampled from the Krasnyj II stratum of the Verkhnekamskoye potash deposit, were realized. The uniaxial extension test method of salt rocks was tried out. The results were being presented as full graphs of deformation, which were being used for determination of parameters of strength, deformation, stiffness and energy.
