Abstract

The slake-durability test is considered to be a basic method for determining the degree to which a rock is susceptible to the effects of the weather. The results of this experiment shed light on the processes that take place when rocks are exposed to the elements at varying depths or even on the surface of the earth. During the slake-durability tests, Franklin and Chandra said that ion exchange and capillary tension are applied to the mechanisms. A total of ten rock samples gathered from a variety of locations were subjected to slake durability testing in order to ascertain the degree to which the Deccan trap basalt is susceptible to the elements in the vicinity of Indore (Madhya Pradesh). It is possible that the dry operation will only take forty-five minutes to complete for some basalt rocks, namely the surface region of the basalt samples.
