Comparison of Uniaxial and Biaxial Strengths for Test Pieces with Controlled Flaws

Authors:

Abstract
Indentation cracks are used as controlled flaws in soda‐lime glass specimens for failure tests in uniaxial and biaxial loading. The inert strength is independent of loading type within the scatter of data. This result is discussed in relation to the conclusions of other workers who have reported systematic differences in similar comparative tests on specimens containing natural flaws.
