摘要
An apparatus for testing tensile strength of cohesive soil is developed, and it can realize different tension test methods including uniaxial tension test, Brazilian test and axial splitting test. The variations in tensile strength of soil with the change of specimen depth are investigated. The results indicate that the results obviously varie with specimen depth in the axial splitting test, slightly in the Brazilian test, and none in the uniaxial tension test.
