Numerical and experimental study of the optimal specimen geometry for direct tension strength tests in high tensile strength fiber reinforced concrete

Abstract The accurate determination of the tensile strength of concrete is a topic of growing interest, especially driven by the new ultra-high tensile strength fiber-reinforced concretes. However, this is a complex task, as traditional methods provide inconsistent results (both splitting tensile te...
