Experimental Investigation on Relative Crack Length For Fracture Toughness of Concrete

Abstract:

The wedge splitting test specimens with three series of different relative crack length were used to study the influences of relative crack length on the fracture toughness of common concrete. The suitable formulation for fracture toughness of concrete with different relative crack length was gotten on comparing between fracture toughness test results and computation results of the model developed from Hu formula.
