The reason for having one specimen per testing parameter was the scale of the specimens and the limited capacity...

Studies have shown that the shear strength limits introduced based on the plane-truss approach estimate the maximum shear strength and shear failure mode with reasonable accuracy. However, the torsional strength limits derived based on the space-truss analogy and thin...
