Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of rock mass engineering technology, in particular to a rock mass quality index rapid measurement device. Background Art
[0002] Since Deere proposed the rock quality designation (RQD) as a quality evaluation index for rock mass classification in 1963, it has been widely used in rock mass stability evaluation in water conservancy and hydropower, mining, underground engineering, transportation engineering, etc., because of its simple calculation and as a function of crack spacing and density, it basically reflects the physical and mechanical properties of rock mass connectivity, permeability, compressibility, etc., and can quantitatively reflect the integrity of engineering rock mass; in addition, it is also related to seismic wave velocity.
[0003] RQD reflects the degree to which the rock mass is cut by various structural planes. As a key indicator in international mainstream engineering rock mass classification methods such as the RMR system and the Q system, RQD is generally determined by coring, and is calculated as the percentage of the cumulative length of the core equal to or greater than 10 cm in the core to the total length of the drilling footage. Most rock mass engineering RQD calculations do not have coring conditions, and are mainly estimated based on the empirical formula of RQD and volume joint number Jv. The accuracy of the empirically calculated Jv is difficult to guarantee, which further affects the accuracy of RQD. Therefore, how to accurately and conveniently measure and calculate the RQD value is crucial for rock mass quality evaluation. Utility Model Content

[0006] As a further technical solution, two operation buttons electrically connected to the display controller are arranged on the ruler-shaped shell below the display screen, namely a calculation button and a reset button. The calculation button is used to send a calculation signal to the display controller to display the calculated rock quality index through the display screen, and the reset button is used to send a clear signal to the display controller to clear the result displayed on the display screen.
