| Abstract |
| The study of the effect of several variables affecting the
determination of E-modulus by flexure was undertaken in order to
remove the inadequacy of the testing procedure, and to gain a more
intimate knowledge of their significance. The diameter, spandepth
ratio, heat treatment, porosity, bulk density etc. affect
the values of E-modulus considerably. The span-depth
ratio is an important factor and should be between 20 and
25 to 1 for such determinations. E-modulus uf kaolin, sillimanite,
alumina, and zircon have been obtained by such flexural
methods and they compare favourably when due consideration is
paid to the variables studied in this investigation. |
