COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF TUFF BRICKS IN DIFFERENT TEST CONDITIONS FINAL RESULTS

GIORGIO FRUNZIO CAMILLA D’ONOFRIO AND MICHELA MONACO

ABSTRACT

This paper is the final part of an experimental research program aimed at collecting information about the most used masonry stone in the Neapolitan area, the yellow tuff. The influence of shape, dimentions, moisture, friction between testing machine platen and specimens on the compressive strength is investigated. The results of the analysis is presented both graphically and numerically.
