Tube-Jack Testing for Irregular Masonry Walls: Regular Masonry Wall Testing [PDF]
Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation, 2016 This paper presents the continued development of a novel non-destructive testing method termed tube-jack testing. The goal of the tube-jack system is to provide an enhanced and less destructive method than traditional flat-jack testing for determination of mechanical characteristics and local stress states in irregular masonry walls.
