strain restoration method strain restoration method[′strān ‚res·tə′rā·shən ‚meth·əd] (mining engineering) A method for determining absolute strain and stress within rock in place by the installation of strain gages on the rock surface, cutting of a slot in the rock between the strain gages so that the surface rock is free to expand, installation of a flat jack in the slot, and application of hydraulic pressure to the flat jack until the rock is restored to its original state of strain; the original stress in the rock is presumed to be equal to the final pressure in the flat jack. |
