Gneiss
Material Notes: Metamorphic rock, resembling granite in appearance. The grains in gneiss have grown into a parallel structure; its compressive strength is higher perpendicular to the grain axes than parallel to this axis. Property values are typical of Gneiss used in construction. Actual property values will vary from sample to sample.
