Entry: Flat jack test

URI: https://data.geoscience.fr/ncl/Proc/101

The purpose of the test is the measurement of in situ stress. The testing technique is based on the release of the stress in a small area of a structure by a plane cut perpendicular to its surface. The flat jack is then loaded in the cut and the pressure is gradually increased by a hydraulic pump until the state of strain is equal to the previously existing condition before the cut.

fr L'essai a pour but la mesure de la contrainte in situ. La technique d’essai est basée sur la libération de la contrainte dans au sein d'un massif rocheux par une coupe plane perpendiculaire à sa surface. Le vérin plat est ensuite placé et chargé dans la saignée et la pression est progressivement augmentée par une pompe hydraulique jusqu’à ce que l’état de contrainte soit égal à la condition antérieure à la coupe.
