The authors feel that the sample geometry and notch depth selected were adequate for the experimental purposes, The sample geometry is consistent with that of other work on ceramic materials, glasses, graphites, and rigid polymers (2,3,4) and is consistent with the analysis of Gross and Srawley (5).
I have read with great interest Dr. Watson's paper on the fracture toughness measurement of hardened cement paste by the work of fracture method (1) using deep edge notched specimens with a large span/depth ratio. While his proposal is sound and based on experimental facts I would like to suggest th
