Physical-mechanical characterization of the limestone rocks of the Mary Carmen Bank in Seybaplaya, Campeche, Mexico: Implications for the construction and conservation of built heritage
The properties of rock aggregates in Seybaplaya, Campeche, Mexico were analyzed, highlighting their uniaxial compressive strength [8.6 - 84.7 MPa], moisture content [3.73 - 13.62 %], real density [1.9 - 2.615 g/cm³], specific weight [18.71 - 25.65 kN/m³], porosity [9.73 - 28.45 %], and rebound value [19 - 45 J], emphasizing the importance of these properties for the design and construction of masonry structures.
