Experimental investigation of the mechanical properties of Alfas stone [PDF]

Frattura Ed Integrita Strutturale, 2017
This paper focuses on the experimental investigation of the mechanical properties of the Alfas natural building stone. Two series of uniaxial compression tests and indirect tensile tests (Brazilian tests) were performed in order to determine the uniaxial

Investigation of the size effect and the fracture process on the uniaxial compressive strength of the banded Alfas porous stone

Procedia Structural Integrity, 2020
Abstract This paper focuses on the experimental and numerical investigation of the size effect and the fracture process on the uniaxial compression strength (UCS) of the banded Alfas porous stone. This natural building material excavated in Rethimnon, Crete, Greece often features two material bands with similar mineralogical properties, but different

Pre-failure indicators detected by Acoustic Emission: Alfas stone, cement-mortar and cement-paste specimens under 3-point bending

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2018
Acoustic Emission (AE) is the technique most widely used nowadays for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). Application of this technique for continuous SHM of restored elements of stone monuments is a challenging task.
