To compensate for this imbalance in concrete's behavior, rebar is cast into it to carry the tensile loads.
The set-up was subjected to a tensile load at a crosshead speed of 1 mm per min.
Such a skin is stiff against tensile loads in the plane of the skin, but flexible for loads perpendicular to it.
It is suitable for fixed installation as well as for moving applications without tensile load.
In order to account for the torque, the tensile load is taken as P.
A tie rod is a slender structural unit used as a tie and (in most applications) capable of carrying tensile loads only.
Bends that are parallel to the longitudinal grain are more likely to crack around the outer edge because it experiences tensile loads.
When tensile loads are applied, concrete undergoes fracture easily.
The two materials may be used uniformly or the glass may be specifically placed in those portions of the structure that will experience tensile loads.
The steel strands act as a tie for the arch and carry the tensile load internal to the beam.
