摘要：

The effect of mainly mechanical weathering on the granodiorites, granites and quartz diorites of the Cavusbasi area of northwest Turkey are described, the samples having been taken from cores and field exposures. The primary characteristics of these rocks are affected by the weathering process which results in a significant constraint on their use in engineering works. The tests undertaken on samples in the various weathering grades included point load and uniaxial compressive strength, slake durability, porosity, loss on ignition, dry and saturated unit weight and water absorption. A tentative correlation between these properties is presented.
