Abstract:Ignimbrite is a type of pyroclastic rock that is formed by the volcanic lava. With the explosion of the Nemrut crater in the city of Bitlis, the lava sprawling around it has cooled down. Because of these cooling, pyroclastic rocks, known as Ahlat stones (AS), were formed in the region. The compressive and bending strength of natural Ahlat stone is very low. In this study, the compressive and bending strength of natural Ahlat stone has been increased by the applications of drying oven curing and combined curing… Show more
