This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ...made in the Laboratory de l'licole des Ponts et Chaussees show that the elastic limit is well defined for compression and its value is little greater than one-half the ultimate resistance. The coefficients of elasticity as marked in these tables are the true or elastic coefficients. Examination of these tables shows that the coefficient of elasticity is greater for mortars and concretes than for neat mixtures, at least in the case of specimens one month old and kept in moist air. The coefficients increase with age in the case of neat ce ments, but do not change materially with the sizes of the specimens. In another table, not quoted, De Joly shows that the value of the coefficient does not change sensibly for different brands of cements; he also states that the value of the coefficient for tension for any one neat, mortar or concrete specimen is constant, and, as compared to the coefficient of elasticity for compression, is equal, or greater, but never less. The following series of tensile tests on reinforced concrete prisms is also recorded by De Joly in the same volume of the "Annales des Ponts et Chaussees" and is of exceeding interest. Figure I shows the character of the specimens with which the tests were made. The specimens of Type No. I, which were both neat, mortar and concrete mixtures, contained three bars of round iron.78 inch in diameter, placed as shown; all other types were neat cement only. Type No. II. contained five bars of iron of the same dimensions, placed as shown. Type No. III. contained either one round bar.78 inch in diameter, placed at the centre and continuing throughout the entire length of the concrete, or two bars, as shown under the figure marked Type III. In Type No. IV. six specimens were...
