the complete set of Suggested Methods from 1974 to 2006 inclusive.
You can download three file prepared by Professor Reşat Ulusay, President of the ISRM
Commission on Testing Methods.

The Blue Book can be purchased from the ISRM Secretariat or from the Turkish National

DISCLAIMER: Most of the Suggested Methods in the Blue Boob were originally published as

ISRM cannot supply the original documents (which are in the Journal issues). All the items
