A Measurement Method of Tensile Strength for Irregular Small Stones

Abstract:

This article studied the drilling loading method for the tensile strength of irregular small-stone, designed the measuring devices, and addressed the measurement problems of irregular small-stone tensile strength. Based on static equilibrium theory, it analyzed the distribution rule of tensile stress in dangerous section, and established the mechanics model of drilling loading method. In considering the impact rules of characteristic destruction size and round-hole size on the hole-edge stress concentration, on this basis it established the theoretical formulas of measuring the tensile strength of brittle materials. It practically measured the failure load of small drilling bluestone, introduced the failure load into the theoretical measurement formula of brittle material tensile strength, and then obtained the tensile strength of stones, while it measured the tensile strength of non-porous strip specimen. The tensile strength of irregular stones measured by the drilling loading method is basically consistent with the tensile strength obtained from the tensile test of non-porous strip specimen, and therefore the drilling loading method is able to reasonably measure the tensile strength of small stones.
