A Direct Tensile Strength Testing Method for Concrete from Existing Structures [PDF]
CivilEng, 2023 Tensile strength is a crucial property for the function, safety and durability of all concrete structures. The general procedure to assess the tensile properties of concrete from existing structures is to perform indirect tests and predict the tensile ...

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 ...

Development of a New Push–Pull Direct Tensile Strength Testing Apparatus (PPTA)
Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2013 Abstract Since direct tensile testing is time-consuming and expensive, the Brazilian test may overestimate the tensile strength of rocks because of its biaxial stress instead of the uniaxial tension condition, an alternative testing method is required to determine tensile strength of intact rock samples.

Indirect Tensile Strength Test on Heterogeneous Rock Using Square Plate Sample with a Circular Hole [PDF]
LithosphereAn indirect testing method for determining the tensile strength of rock-like heterogeneous materials is proposed. The realistic failure process analysis method, which can consider material inhomogeneity, is applied to model the failure process of the ...

Laboratory Tensile Strength Testing of Clay Soils using Direct Measurement
Japanese Geotechnical Society Special Publication, 2019 Clay has wide application in engineered barriers, such as buffer barriers in deep geological nuclear waste disposal, clay liners in landfill, and earthen slopes and embankments, to name a few. However, most clay soils have a high potential to crack under extreme weather induced moisture loss. From a macro-mechanical view, clay tensile strength which is
