Hello,
I need the equation for calculating the bearing capacity of limestone rock using the uni-axial compression test for rock

Furthermore, if the rock mass is anisothropic, the single joint planes will govern failure conditions and you will need the orientation of the joint sets and the Mohr parameters along the governing joint sets.
I'm curious about the q/10 rule though, I may want to go and check that in an isothropic rock mass at which level of jointing it applies.

I do have Goodman's book on rock mechanics , he suggests qu= UCS x ( Nphi+1) but i guess this holds true only for good RQD quality rock and with rigid rocks like limestone in my case . Another approach consists of calculating S/B with B the width of the strip footing and S the distance between successive discontinuities and then inject them in a formula
