Dear all,

I am conducting the Indirect Tensile Test on Cylindrical Specimens (IT-CY) according to EN 12697-24 and need clarification regarding ΔH (Total Horizontal Deformation).

Specifically, when calculating the average of the minimum horizontal deformation over five load cycles (cycles 60 to 64), does "minimum" refer to the average of H-permanent or H-resilient within these cycles?

Thank you in advance for your guidance.
