Method of testing glass in monoaxial compression

  • Published:
Strength of Materials Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Testing based on plane bearings does not give a full representation of the strength of commercial glass under monoaxial compression.

  2. 2.

    The proposed method of testing compound glass testpieces, based on increasing the load bearing capacity of the ends of smooth rods under compression, provided a means of establishing that the commercial glass adopted by industry has a compressive strength of up to 200–250kgf/mm2 with a small scatter of the data relating to properties.

  3. 3.

    Mechanical surface damage of commercial glass leads to a considerable reduction of its compressive strength.
