Tests of Shale and Coal Cores from Proposed Spillway Site, Shelbyville Reservoir, Kaskaskia River, Illinois,

Abstract

Thirteen shale cores and one coal core from the Shelbyville Reservoir spillway site were tested for shear strength, and the shale cores were tested for modulus of elasticity, effects of exposure to air, and bond to concrete to provide information for use in the spillway design study.
