1.1 This test method covers testing apparatus, specimen preparation, and testing procedures for determining the splitting tensile strength of rock by diametral line compression of a disk.

Note 1—The tensile strength of rock determined by tests other than the straight pull test is designated as the indirect tensile strength and, specifically, the value obtained in Section 9 of this test is termed the splitting tensile strength.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values in parentheses are mathematical conversions and are provided for information only.

1.3 All dimension and force measurements, and stress calculations shall conform to the guidelines for significant digits and rounding established in Practice D 6026.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
