Abstract

Tensile strngth of soils is often considered negligible for engineering applications, being small or equal to zero. Nevertheless its evaluation and comparison with other geotechnical parameters can be interesting. This paper presents split-tensile adn double-punch tests results carried out on compacted cohesive samples. Relationshipa among tensile strength, degree of saturation, unconfined compression strength, water content, plastcity index of cohesive samples are shown.
