Comparative Study on the Bond Strength between Direct Tensile Test and Indirect Tensile Test for Bonded Concrete Overlay [PDF]
Journal of the Korean Society of Civil Engineers, 2013 Bonded concrete overlay is a favorable maintenance method since the material properties are similar to existing concrete pavements. In addition, bonded concrete overlay has advantage of structural performance based on being bonded together, both for the overlay layer and the existing pavement which perform as one monolithic layer.

Assessment of Direct Tensile Strength Tests in Rock Through a Multi-laboratory Benchmark Experiment
Rock Mechanics and Rock EngineeringAbstractThis study aims to experimentally assess repeatability and reproducibility of direct tensile strength (DTS) tests with deformability measurements on two types of rocks: Blanco Mera granite (Spain) and Cotta sandstone (Germany). The tests were conducted in four rock mechanics laboratories located in different countries (Canada, Germany, Spain ...
