To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The initial rate of absorption of the blocks varied between 12 g to 17 g/min/30 sq in. An indirect tension test was conducted to find the tensile strength of the block (49) . Two test methods were devised for splitting hollow concrete block. The first method, shown in Figures 2.1(a) and 2.1(b), was arranged so that the block could be split twice. The load was applied through hexagonal bars with 3/4" flats, first through one cell and then through the other cell of the block. The second method, s...hown in Figure 2.1(c), was arranged to load 38 39 both cells simultaneously. Round bars of 1-3/8" diameter were used to distribute the load in this test. Usually- only one split occurred as is shown in Figure 2.1(d). The results of the tests are given in reference (49) . The indirect tensile strength of the block was calculated using the relation: 2P where P is the splitting load and A the sectional area of split. In the range of the block strengths tested, it appears that the split tensile strength is approximately five times the square root of the compressive strength as determined by the standard block compression test.
