The paper discusses the applicability of the ISRM fracture beam specim
en to the testing of interfaces between paste and rock. The method is
suitable for interface tests in which rough fractured rock surfaces or
prepared rock surfaces are required. Some typical results are present
ed and discussed in terms of different failure modes. A formula for eq
uivalent elastic modulus of a composite beam is also introduced.
