Aspect Ratio Factor for Strength Correction of Pressed Earth Brick Prisms

Thaickavil, Nassif Nazeer / Thomas, Job

This paper presents an experimental study considering the effect of aspect ratio of masonry prism specimens on the compressive strength of pressed earth brick masonry. The variable considered in the experimental study is the aspect ratio of prism specimens. A total of twelve specimens were prepared and tested under four different geometric configurations. Strength correction factors to account for the effects of aspect ratio of prism have been proposed by conducting a regression analysis.
