A Direct Measurement Method for the Uniaxial Tensile Strength of Rock
BuildingsA universally applicable direct tension test method is proposed in this paper based on the concept of “compression-to-tension”. Using this method, one or two typical rocks were selected for each of the three types of rocks.

Origin of tensile strength of a woven sample cut in bias directions [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 Textile fabrics are highly anisotropic, so that their mechanical properties including strengths are a function of direction. An extreme case is when a woven fabric sample is cut in such a way where the bias angle and hence the tension loading direction is around 45° relative to the principal directions.
