This paper aims to study the effect of anisotropy on strengths of several metamorphic rocks of south ((C)ine) submassif of Menderes metamorphic massif in southwest Turkey.Four different metamorphic rocks including foliated phyllite,schist,gneiss and marble (calcschist) were selected and examined.Discontinuity surveys were made along lines for each rock and evaluated with DIPS program.L-type Schmidt hammer was applied in the directions parallel and perpendicular to foliation during the field study.Several hand samples and rock blocks were collected during the field study for measurements of dry and saturated densities,dry and saturated unit weights and porosity,and for petrographic analysis and strength determination in laboratory.L-and N-type Schmidt hammers were applied in the directions perpendicular (anisotropy angle of 0°) and parallel (anisotropy angle of 90°) to the foliation on selected blocks of phyllite,schist,gneiss and marble (calcschist).The phyllite and schist have higher porosity and lower density values than the other rocks.However,coarse crystalline gneiss and marble (calcschist) have higher rebound values and strengths,and they are classified as strong-very strong rocks.Generally,the rebound values in the direction perpendicular to the foliation are slightly higher than that in the direction parallel to foliation.Rebound values of N-type Schmidt hammer are higher than the L-type values except for phyllite.Sometimes,the rebound values of laboratory and field applications gave different results.This may result from variable local conditions such as minerals differentiation,discontinuities,water content,weathering degree and thickness of foliated structure.
