In order to investigate how the apparent separation of jointing varies according to the distance from faults, and how the mechanical properties of rock masses depend on this distance and jointing density, a number of regression analysis were performed on the variables s (apparent joint separation), d (distance from major fault), and sh (rebound value of Schmidt hammer).

The variables were measured at 380 stations distributed over a wide study area located in the Aspromonte range in Calabria, Southern Italy.

The most significant results of simple regression analysis are expressed by the formulas:
