Expert Commentary
Governs the Bond Strength of Dry-Set Portland Cement Mortar. Testing involves shear and tensile bond evaluations between tiles and substrates. Due to the high failure loads and brittle nature of the specimens, the test machine must have high lateral stiffness and a specialized shearing jig that ensures the load is applied parallel to the bond line without inducing parasitic moments.
