Givanildo Azeredo ¹, Jean-Claude Morel ², Normando Perazzo Barbosa ³, COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH TESTING OF EARTH MORTARS, Journal of Urban and Environmental Engineering, Vol. 1, No. 1 (January to March, ...

Shearing at the boundary layers in the higher density foams tested with the load 45° to the knit line resulted in a drop in compressive strength. The FR-3718 encountered a 31.5% drop in strength at ...

Although concrete has good compression strength, the tensile strength is quite poor. Around the late 1800s, someone thought to fortify spans of concrete with steel reinforcing bars, better known ...
