tranversely isotropic behaviour, carried out in order to determine the strength and defor~tion characteristics, as a function of the inclination of the laminations with respect to the direction of loading, are discussed.

PRoC.THIRD CONGRESS,INT.SOC.ROCK MECH.,DENV~q,1974, V2, PART A,PI32-137. The writer describes a method for the quantitative determination of the unevenness of loading surfaces of cubic specimens of rocks. Using rocks of different degrees of unevenness in compression tests it was found that decrease of strength is in direct relation to unevenness and compressive strength. A comparison of results obtained from rock specimens with results obtained from concrete specimens is also presented. 1531 KAWAMOTO,T UNIV.NAGOYA, J SAITO,T UNIV.TOKAI,SHI~IZU, J The behaviour of rock-llke materials in some controlled strain states.

The servo controlled trisxlal compression testing machine with loading capacities of i00 ton in two horizontal axes and 200 ton in the vertical axis, was used to study the mechanism of failure and the behaviour in post-failure of rock-like materials such as cement mortar,sandstone and tuff. 1532 LUNDBORG,N SwED.DETON.RES.FOUND.STOCKHOLM, S A statistical theory of the polyaxial strength of materials.Conference.SF,1T,12R. PROC.THIRD CONGRESS, INT.SOC.ROCK MECH.DENVER 1974, VOL 2,PART A, 1974,P180-185. A complete model of the strength in the principal stress space has been derived from a probabilistic model of the strength distribution. Some well known strength criteria are found to be special cases of the present criterion. The Lndependent parameters of the theory are the internal friction coefficient and the variance of the strength distribution, and both of these are derived from simple experiments. The theory gives a smooth yield surface without the sharp corner inherent for example in the Mohr-Coulomb and Tresca criteria.Auth. 1533 MANDZIC,E Effective strength of rock salt. Conference. 2F,22R.

PROC.THIRD CONGRESS,INT.SOC.ROCK MECH.DHNVER.1974, VOL 2,PART A,1974,P219-220. A new criterion for the peak shear strength of rock Joints is summarized. It can be used either to fit experimental data or for prediction. The predicted strength is sensitive to: degree of surface roughness, compressive strength, degree of weathering, mineralogy, and presence or absence of water. Auth.
