Abstract

The physical and mechanical properties of rocks are called those that determine their behavior under the influence of external forces (loads) and manifest themselves in resistance to destruction and deformation. The property of rocks to resist destruction and the formation of large residual deformations under the influence of the load or, more precisely, to perceive, without breaking down within certain limits and conditions, certain loads are called strength, and their property to change under load the shape of folding and volume is deformation. These properties express and evaluate the strength and deformation indicators. The article compares the physical and mechanical properties and structure of the effusive volcanoes of Zimin and Kamen, which are located on the Kamchatka Peninsula. The physical and mechanical properties of the effusive rocks of these volcanoes are rather well studied, which allows to make their detailed characterization, as well as to compare the rocks with each other, highlighting the similarities and differences. By analyzing the data obtained, it is possible to use this information in similar studies, identifying the results or explaining them if there are differences. The conducted studies allow to more accurately explain the influence of structural features on changes in the physical and mechanical properties of the rocks of the Kamen and Zimin volcanoes.
