  2. Concrete cone failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_cone_failure

    Concrete cone is one of the failure modes of anchors in concrete, loaded by a tensile force. The failure is governed by crack growth in concrete, which forms a typical cone shape having the anchor's axis as revolution axis .

  6. Concrete slump test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_slump_test

    The test is carried out using a metal mould in the shape of a conical frustum known as a slump cone or Abrams cone, that is open at both ends and has attached handles.The tool typically has an internal diameter of 100 millimetres (3.9 in) at the top and of 200 millimetres (7.9 in) at the bottom with a height of 305 millimetres (12.0 in).The cone is placed on a hard non-absorbent surface.

  7. Size effect on structural strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size_Effect_on_Structural...

    For this reasons, the size effect on the strength in brittle failures of concrete structures and structural laminates has long been ignored. Then, however, the failure probability, which is required to be < 10 − 6 {\displaystyle <10^{-6}} , and actually does have such values for normal-size structures, may become for very large structures as ...
