Popis:	Tensile stress – tensile strain relationships for lightly cemented sand specimens obtained by conducting Brazilian tensile strength tests have been presented. The tensile strain measurement was done by using an optical image analysis technique. In addition to the tensile strength tests, some unconfined compression tests on sand specimens with varying cement contents were also performed. Based on the results of the above tests, a nondimensional tensile stress – tensile strain relationship has been presented. Also the variation of the tensile and compressive strength and strain ratios with varying cement contents have been discussed. Key words : lightly cemented sand, optical image analysis, tensile strain, tensile strength, unconfined compression strength.
