About this document
Modulus of Rupture Calculation Guide by Miyamura Izumi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document describes how to calculate the modulus of rupture (R) from a flexural test based on where the fracture occurs in the beam specimen. It provides three cases: 1) if fracture is in the middle third, use equation 1; 2) if fracture is within 5% of the span from the middle, use equation 2; 3) if fracture is more than 5% from the middle, discard results. It then works through a sample problem calculating R for fractures at different locations.
