Tensile strength of concrete.
 
Interesting to watch a skilled bricklayer use a " certain" type trowel to remove very old mortar from a used brick.
notice very carefully that he strikes the brick near the old mortar and " shazzaam!!" the mortar instantly releases from the brick.
Once had an old timer say he had a certain trowel that " sang" when he struck the brick a certain way so he could feel the brick resonate in his hand.and the morter would release.
