Brazilian test

A method for the determination of the tensile strength of rock, concrete, ceramic, or other material by applying a load vertically at the highest point of a test cylinder or disk (the axis of which is horizontal), which is itself supported on a horizontal plane. The method was first used in Brazil for testing concrete rollers on which an old church was being moved to a new site.
