Fatigue Damage of Concrete

  • Conference paper
Fracture of Concrete and Rock

Abstract

Cyclic flexural load tests of simply supported beams under central concentrated charge were performed, for two different concrete Young modulus. The strain at the most tensioned fiber was measured during experiments. A model for cumulative damage which is proportional to the strain was used to present the results.
