Abstract The Iosipescu specimen, invented for investigation of shear strength of orthotropic materials, in its original shape did not meet expectations, producing a complex stress pattern. In the present investigation a improved shape of the specimen is presented, which depends sharply on tested material properties. Resulting relations both for the shape of the specimen (1) and calculation of shear strength (2) are given. The research has shown a strong dependence of the shape of the specimen on elastic properties of the tested material.
