Abstract |
This report presents a systematic review of the available data in the technical data management systems (TDMS) that are relevant to the following intact rock properties: rock tensile strength, Schmidt hammer rebound hardness, and rock triaxial creep. Relevant data are compiled from qualified and unqualified sources into the summary data tracking numbers (DTNs) and these DTNs are evaluated for qualification using the method of corroborating data as defined in AP-SIII.2Q, 'Qualification of Unqualified Data.' This report also presents a summary of the compiled information in the form of descriptive statistics and recommended values that will be contained in a Reference Information Base (RIB) item prepared in accordance with AP-SIII.4Q, 'Development, Review, Online Placement, and Maintenance of Individual Reference Information Base Data Items.' The primary purpose of this report is to produce qualified sets of data that include all relevant intact rock tensile strength, Schmidt hammer rebound hardness, and rock triaxial creep testing done over the course of the Yucca Mountain Project (YMP). |
