Abstract

It is difficult to prepare a specimen for directly testing a tensile strength of soils. Therefore, a tensile strength of soils has been measured indirectly. In this study, a mold and sample preparation tool for directly testing a tensile strength of soils has been developed and a tensile strength of weakly cemented sand was measured by using such device. A compressive strength of the cemented sand was also measured and its value was 30 times greater than its tensile strength.
