The parameters were used to evaluate the quality of the sandstone and its suitability for use as armourstone in accordance with applicable standards and quality guidelines. The requirements of the BN-79/8952-31, EN 13383-1:2003 and the CIRIA, CUR, CETMEF (2007) standards were compared. Sandstone can display a large variability of parameters depending on its origin. This, in turn, results in a varying degree of its susceptibility to the destructive effects of water and climate.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={The evaluation of the physico-mechanical properties of selected carpathian sandstones in terms of their use as a armourstone}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/110185/PDF/Archiwum-64-1-05-Hydzik.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ams.2019.126272}, keywords={armourstone, hydraulic engineering, properties of carpathian sandstones}, }
