Funding & impact
Funding bodies / call
Regional research project supported by the Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha / INNOCAM and co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF/FEDER).
Expected impact
Better design data
A more trustworthy non-linear pure-shear curve and shear strength improve analytical and finite-element predictions.
Standardization
Experimental evidence supports the validation and evolution of UNE 0074:2023 and its broader adoption.
Accessible testing
The uniaxial-machine fixture lowers an important equipment barrier to biaxial TC testing.
Regional capability
New biaxial infrastructure at INAIA strengthens testing, training and collaboration capacity in Castilla-La Mancha.
From testing to design
The common thread is to reduce experimental uncertainty and turn it into more reliable properties for design, predictive simulation, standardization and transfer.
