Abstract

Similar materials such as cement, gypsum and sand are options for simulating limestone characteristic. A series of reasonable proportions are chosen to do similar experiments of Karst roof based on the proportions testing of small samples indoors. Applying on ultrasonic, the velocities of transverse wave and vertical wave of similar samples have been inspected with the sound wave instrument. Dynamic modulus of elasticity and Poisson’s ratio of the samples have been educed. According to the testing data, the relationship between the transverse wave and vertical wave velocity, compressive strength and anti-bend strength are analyzed. It has been proved that the vertical wave velocity is better for reflecting compressive strength and anti-bend strength of similar materials than the transverse wave velocity. The vertical wave velocity increases with the strength and dynamic modulus of elasticity.
