Fracture Parameters of Cement Mortar with Different Structural Dimensions Under the Direct Tension Test

In this paper, we measured the fracture properties of cement mortar—which is composed of sand and has a nearly constant diameter—using a direct tension test. Four double-notched mortar bar specimens with different structural dimensions were assessed. The failure load, load-crack...
