Abstract
The mechanical properties of rocks are usually measured in compression and then it is often assumed that the tensile properties are similar. The author points out that it is well known that rocks are usually weaker in tension and that the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio may also be different. A method for correcting the error is given if certain of these properties are known. (LTN)
