A large polyaxial loading system is being procured, which will be               employed to apply triaxial compression to large (l2 x l2 x l2 in)               specimens of rock.  The equipment to be procured includes flatjacks,            hydraulic assemblies, a hydraulic pump, and a data acquisition system.          The equipment will initially be utilized to investigate:  the spall             failures induced in deep bore holes by field stresses and thermal               stresses; the shear conductivity for dilatant rock joints; acoustic             emission monitoring of fluid injection into various types of rock;              failure theories of coal which will include three dimensional stress            effects; and inelastic effects and residual strain in stress                    measurements of rock masses.
