Classification Based on Degree of Weathering of Rock Mass Rocks can be classified on the basis of its degree of wreathing. These type of rock classification gives the engineer qualitative idea of rock mass. This type of classification is generally done on site and only by a through visual inspection rocks can be classified.

drives typically consisted of abrasive granite (GI-GII) below the tunnel axis, and the weathered granite (GIV-GVI) above the tunnel axis. Difficult to predict, boulders of various sizes from 3-6m were encountered in these mixed ground conditions, with their size and frequency more prevalent with the weathering of the Bukit Timah Granite.

The hardness of granite is high, its Mohs hardness is about 6, and its density is between 2.63g/cm3 and 2.75g/cm3. Its compressive strength is 100-300MPa, and fine-grained granite can be as high as 300MPa or more. At 10 to 30 MPa.

Weathering of rocks such as granite forms these quartz grains. In the process of weathering, the softer, weaker minerals in granite (such as feldspar) are weathered away. The more resistant quartz eventually is ground down in size, but does not break down chemically. In time, these quartz grains accumulate in rivers, streams, deltas and on beaches.

this includes six degrees of weathering: w 1 (fresh rock with no signs of weathering), w 2 (slightly weathered rock with discoloration along discontinuity surfaces), w3 (moderately weathered rock with less than half of the rock decomposed), w 4 (highly weathered rock with more than half of the material transformed to a soil), w 5 (completely .

Decomposed granite formations are naturally fragile due to their weathering (which is what makes it a decomposed granite). The fragile nature of true DG renders it somewhat easier to acquire than solid slabs of stone, and therefore, more economically and environmentally friendly to mine. Crushed Granite

What happens when granite is weathered? (from the site of Pamela Gore, Georgia Perimeter College) First, unweathered granite contains these minerals: o Na Plagioclase feldspar o K feldspar o Quartz o Lesser amounts of biotite, amphibole, or muscovite The feldspars will undergo hydrolysis to form kaolinite (clay) and Na and K ions The Na and K ions will be removed through leaching

The main source of gravel is lateritic gravel and crushed lateritic duricrust. Natural gravel is extracted using a loader, but harder duricrust falls into the category of a soft rock quarry. Some other types of gravel may include limestone, scree, coarse river sand and decomposed gravel. Pits are normally shallow at 1 - 4 metres depth.
