With regard to materials in nature having extraordinary properties, one focus of our research is nacre-inspired materials. On the basis of 3D-printing, it was possible to prepare tiny bending bars in order to be tested in three-point bending (3PB). However, their cross sections are not rectangular but have a special geometric shape. Therefore, analytical calculations concerning the area moment of inertia and other physical quantities were performed for the correct analysis of the measured data.
