The results showed that the water content has obvious infiuence on the mechanical properties of gypsum breccia. With increasing of water content,the angle of internal friction and cohesion of gypsum breccia decrease linearly.

At the same confining pressure,the peak deviator stress and elastic modulus decrease exponentially,while Poisson's ratio increases linearly with the increasing of the water content. At the same water content,with increasing of the confining pressure,the peak deviator stress,elastic modulus and the peak deviator stress increase trend but Poisson's ratio decreases at a lower water content. While at a high water contents,the Poisson's ratio doesn't change much.
