Tensile strength - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tensile strength ( \sigma_{UTS} or S_U  ) is indicated by the maxima of a stress-strain curve and, in general, indicates when necking will occur. As it is an intensive property, its value does no...

The influences of mortar type, grout strength, and bed joint reinforcement were studied. The results show that the tensile strength characteristics of either ungrouted or grouted masonry vary with the stress orientation that indicates the inherent anisotropic nature of masonry as a composite material.
