Performance of sand cement block under axial load with different eccentricity

The load carrying capacity of structures under eccentric loading is a primary issue for the assessment of several structural elements, such as walls, vaults, arches and pillars. Even though these structures are quite different, they may exhibit a stress concentration resulting from the eccentricity...

description The load carrying capacity of structures under eccentric loading is a primary issue for the assessment of several structural elements, such as walls, vaults, arches and pillars.

Three types of block prism namely Prism A, Prism B and Prism C were prepared.
