Referenced Documents purchase separately The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not asttm as part of the standard. How one applies the results obtained using this standard is beyond its scope. This is an index test and is intended to be used to classify rock strength. Such specifics would be dependent on the intended use of the data, as well as possible budgetary constraints and possible other factors, which are outside the scope of this test method.
Point Load Tester
The specifics of the point load test program need to be developed prior to testing and possibly even before sampling. Reliable results depend on many factors; Practice D provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.

It is beyond the scope of these test methods to consider significant digits used in analysis methods for engineering design. In addition, they are representative of the significant digits that generally should be retained. However, it is a time-consuming and expensive test that requires significant specimen preparation and the results may not be available for a long time after the samples are collected.
Active Risk Management
The test is typically used in the field because the testing machine is portable, little or minimal specimen preparation is required, and specimens can be tested within a short time frame of being collected.
The test asrm should not be used for design or analytical purposes. The e5731 is typically used in the field because the testing machine is portable, little or minimal specimen preparation is required, and specimens can be tested within a short time frame of being collected.

It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice D are generally considered capable of competent and objective testing and sampling.
ASTM D – 02 Standard Test Method for Determination of the Point Load Strength Index of Rock
This is d531 index test and is intended to be used to classify rock strength. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Little or no f5731 preparation is needed and can therefore be tested shortly after being obtained and any influence of moisture condition on the test data minimized.
Users of this standard are cautioned that compliance with Practice D does not in itself assure reliable results.
The quality of the result produced by this standard is dependent upon the competence of the personnel performing it, and the suitability of the equipment and facilities used. Therefore, it may d531 necessary to handle specimens in accordance with Practice D and to document moisture conditions in some manner in the data collection.

However, the results can be highly influenced by how the specimen is treated from the time it is obtained until the time it is tested.
