Popis: While the testing of the compressive strength of cement-bound materials is regulated by norms and only differentiates in the dimensions and shapes of the specimens to be tested (cube, cylinder, prism), such standards are missing for the determination of the uniaxial tensile strength. The test methods known from literature which can be used to determine the uniaxial tensile strength, are partly associated with a high test effort, cannot ensure introducing the tensile force centrically or determine the tensile strength only indirectly via a conversion, e.g. from the flexural strength or the splitting tensile strength.
