A Discussion about the Rod Position in the Splitting Tensile Tests on Hollow Concrete Blocks
Buildings, 2022 Different loading conditions cause different tensile stress patterns in masonry structures. Several studies related to masonry behavior use indirect tensile tests to obtain that value, where the splitting test from ASTM-C-1006 is usually employed.
