In order to investigate what different types of anisotropy (Foliation, stratification or shistosity) in rocky materials will have influence on their ultimate strength and failure pattern, a series of uni-, bi-and tri-axial compression tests were performed using the mortar specimens with construction joints. The results obtained are as follows:
