ISRM Suggested Methods for Determining the Creep Characteristics of Rock

It is important to note that creep is only one aspect of the time-dependent behavior of rocks. Creep experiments are often used to determine the time-dependent strength and/or time-dependent deformation modulus of rocks. The creep characteristics of rocks are very important for assessing the long-te...

Summary:It is important to note that creep is only one aspect of the time-dependent behavior of rocks. Creep experiments are often used to determine the time-dependent strength and/or time-dependent deformation modulus of rocks. The creep characteristics of rocks are very important for assessing the long-term stability of rock engineering structures.
