Determination of Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) of rocks

open access: yes, 2012
Being brittle materials, rocks exhibit different behaviours under tensile and compressive loading. The tensile strength of rock is orders of magnitude less than its compressive strength. Hence, the determination of the tensile strength of rocks is of crucial important for both civil and rock mechanics applications, such as tunnelling, underground ...

Investigating the Effect of Cyclic Loading on the Indirect Tensile Strength of Rocks

Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2011
This paper presents the results of laboratory experiments during the investigation of the stress-strain characteristics of Brisbane tuff disc specimens under diametral compressive cyclic loading. Two different cyclic loading methods were used: namely, sinusoidal cyclic loading and cyclic loading with increasing mean level.

Indirect Tensile Strengths of Crushed-Sand Concretes in Correlation with Its Compressive Strength

2020 5th International Conference on Green Technology and Sustainable Development (GTSD), 2020
The correlation between indirect tensile strengths and compressive strengths of the crushed-sand concretes was experimentally investigated. The crushed-sand concrete called in this paper was termed as the concrete using crushed-sand to replace traditional river sand in producing concrete.

Indirect Tensile Strength of Concrete Containing Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement Using the Superpave Indirect Tensile Test

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
Concrete mixes containing Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) were evaluated by the Superpave® Indirect Tensile (IDT) strength test using a constant force-control and a displacement-control rate. The IDT strength of concrete without RAP at early age was seen to increase as the temperature decreased.

Measurement of Indirect Tensile Strength of Anisotropic Rocks by the Ring Test

Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2001
This paper presents a new approach, combined with the Boundary Element Method (BEM) analysis and the diametrical compression on a thin disc with a small central hole, referred to as the ring test, for determining the indirect tensile strength of anisotropic rocks.

Fracturing and indirect tensile strength of brittle and ductile rocks

2014
Rock failure can either be referred to as brittle, ductile, or at the brittle-ductile transition. Brittle failure is said to occur when the ability of the rock resist load decreases with increasing deformation. Brittle failure is associated with the materials that undergo little to no permanent deformation before failure and, depending on the test ...

Correlating the Dynamic Modulus and the Indirect Tensile Strength of Asphalt Concrete

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
This study has developed a relationship between the Dynamic Modulus (E*) and the Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) of Hot-Mix Asphalt (HMA) using standard laboratory tests programs. Two types of SuperPave (SP) mixtures were considered namely, SP-III with 15% Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) materials and SP-III with 35% RAP materials. Cylindrical samples

Uniaxial compression tests and the validity of indirect tensile strength

Journal of Materials Science, 1990
So-called “indirect” tensile tests have been adopted for various reasons, especially ease of execution and supposed freedom from several notable interferences. The extensive literature reveals much disparity in the conditions for such tests, and no consensus conclusion concerning the optimum protocol or even the interpretation of the results.

A study of asphalt aging using Indirect Tensile Strength test

Construction and Building Materials, 2015
Abstract While dynamic modulus, diametrical resilient modulus, and loss of ductility are the most common parameters to study aging, this study determines laboratory equivalence of field aging using an Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) test for its simplicity and wide usages in Asphalt Concrete (AC) performance evaluation.
