摘要
The widely used concrete tensile strength test, the Brazilian cylinder splitting test, is analyzed using isoparametric nonlinear finite strip elements. The results of the numerical analysis suggest that the apparent tensile strength obtained from the splitting test underestimates the uniaxial tensile strength of concrete. After investigating the effects of various concrete properties and the packing strip width in the splitting test, a simple method for correcting this underestimation is established.
