Crushing strength of stone: It is defined as load per unit area at which stone starts cracking. It depends on: 1. The texture of stone ensures whether the stone is rough or smooth hence friction between the surface of the stone and the CTM machine depends on the texture and hence crushing strength of stone also depends on texture. 2.
