Both are composite materials consisting ofmultiple constituents and have a highly heterogeneous microstructure.Concrete typically consists of aggregate bonded by hardened cementpaste while fiber composites typically consist of a weaker matrix materialreinforced by strong fibers, which may be discontinuous or continuous,consisting of parallel fibers of a fabric. The fracturing behavior of thesematerials differs from metals. They exhibit almost no plasticity. Theyfail by propagation of a macrocrack having at its front a fracture processzone (FPZ), which contains microcraclcs and microslips and nonnaDyhas a size not negligible compared to structural dimensions.The fracture propagation starts either from a preexisting macrocrackor by formation of an FPZ in a region with a stress concentration, oftenat the boundary. The large size of the FPZ, which is dictated by material hett:rogeneity and is approximately a constant material property,endows the material with a significant capability to dissipate energy,which can provide certain measure of structural ductility. So, eventhough these materials are colloquiaDy referred to as brittle, in scientificdiscourse they are properly termed Mquasibrittle:" But note that thisterm is relative. When the structure becomes so large that the FPZ sizeis negligible, a quasibrittle structure becomes rittle. Vice versa, whena brittle structure, made, for example, of fine grained mortar, becomessufficiently small its behavior becomes quasibrittle. There are manyquasibrittle materials-aside from concrete and fiber composites, suchas most rocks, coal, wood, sea ice, coarse-grained ceramics, rigid foams,paper, carton, bone, and bio- and bio-inspired materials. 1To assess the strength of structures with cracks, fracture mechanicsmust be used.l Today there are three types of fracture mechanics:(1) linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM), which was originated byin 1921 by Griffith 3 and characterizes brittle failure; it deals with sharpcraclcs whose FPZ is negligible compared to structure dimension (e.g.,the FPZ in fatigued steel haa micrometer dimensions). (2) The ductilefracture mechanics, 2 was developed fully during the 1960s, in whichthere is a long and wide plastic (or plastic-hardening) zone in frontof the crack but the FPZ is still negligible; and (3) quasibrittle fracturemechanics,1 there is a large FPZ in front of the crack, with almost noplastic zone surrounding it. The ductile, as well as quasibrittle, fracturemechanics is approximately treated by various adaptations ofLEFM.In LEFM, the crack propagation criterion can be stated eitherin terms of the fracture energy, Gf' which represents the energy requiredto extend the crack by a unit area, or in terms of the critical stressintensity factor, called the fracture toughness, K,. Their relation, dueto Irwin, is(6.1)where, for plane stress, E' B Young's modulus of elasticity and, forplane strain, E' E/(1 - vl) where v is the Poisson's ratio. The craclccan grow and possibly cause structural failure when K becomes equalto[(,.For quasibrittle materials, however, due to the FPZ, a significant partof the structure volume acts nonlinearly, making LEFM inapplicable.A simple but effective treatment of this nonlinearity is the equivalentLEFM approach. 1.2 In this approach, the nonlinear FPZ is accountedfor by assuming that its effect on the compliance and load capacity ofthe structure is essentially the same as if an LEFM sharp crack wereextended, by distance ep roughly into the middle of the FPZ. 1 Thelonger crack, oflength a. a 0 ep where 'J is approximately constant,is called the effective or equivalent craclc (see Fig. 6.1). The remainingtreatment is similar to LEFM, as used for example, for fatigue-embrittledstt:el. The equivalent LEFM can be applied for crack initiation evenwhen only the FPZ. but no actual crack, is as yet present, which is notthe case with LEFM.Some rules have to be introduced to express how the equivalentcraclc extends under increased loads. For instance, the fracture energyG1 for equivalent LEFM (alternately interpreted as the internal materialresistance R to crack growth) is not a constant but varies with the craclclength, becoming a constant for larger crack sizes. The plot of this internal resistance R versus the crack extension Ila from the notch is referredto as the R-curve1.2 (or resistance curve). This curve can be empiricallydett:rmined from lab rests.An important aspect that must be considered is the structure sizeeffect on its nominal strength, defined as aN P,.JA, where P,.,, isthe load capacity (maximum load) and A the structural cross-sectionarea (which can be taken arbitrarily but must be homologous for various sizes). A host of past studies 1-' have established the close interplaybetween failure load, FPZ size, and the resulting scaling in the structuralstrength. 115

CHAPTER SIX166 xFigul't! 6.1 Equivalent LEFM crack.Size effects of two basic simple types can be distinguished. Considerfirst the type I size effect,4 which occurs in unnotched or un-precrackedstructures that fail when a macrocrack initiates from a smooth surfacein the presence of a stress gradient. It is explained by the stress redistribution due to FPZ formation, the equivalent LEFM crack becomingnonzero.5.6 In the absence of the statistical part, which is importantfor very large structures, the size effect on the nominal structurestrength is(6.2)Here D is the structure size, CS0 is the asymptotic strength for a structure of infinite size, 10 is a length constant proportional to the materialcharacteristic length scale, and r is a dimensionless empirical constantwith typical value 1.45.For very large sizes (D "") this equation predicts a vanishing sizeeffect. However, in reality, in structures of sizes much larger than theFPZ, the strength in type I failures follows the Weibull statistical sizeeffect.7 A smooth transition to the statistical size effect can be incorporated in Eq. 6.2 by modifying it to a generalized energetic-statistical sizeeffect5 law as follows:(6.3)Here n is the number of dimensions of the failure mode (1, 2, or 3) andm is the Weibull modulWJ, typically 24 for concrete and 8 to 10 for fibercomposites.8- 10 A best fit of Eq. 6.3 is shown in Fig. 6.2 to a variety oftest data on concrete and composites.The degree ofbrittleneu (opposite of ductility) ia important for theprobabilistic distribution function (pdf) of structural strength and oflifetime under cyclic and static fatigue. For brittle materials, the pdf ofstrength and fatigue lifi:times is of Weibull type, while for ductile materials it is Gaussian (or normal). In the central range both pdfs are hardto distinguish, but the very low failure probability point (Pr 1 ) in theWeibull pdfis almost twice as far from the mean as for the Gaussian [forthe same mean and the typical coefficient of variation of errors (CoV)].For quasibrittle structures, the pdf is a hybrid of both. 11- 13 It consist. ofa Weibull tail grafted on the left onto a Gaussian core. For structuresincluding one or a few FPZs, the grafting point is at P1 - 0.001. Asthe structure size increases, the grafting point moves to the right andwhen the structure volume becomes 105 times the FPZ, the entire pdfbecomes Weibullian. This is important for setting the safety factors fordesign, which should ensure P1 10- S per lifetime (which is about 104times lower than one's probability of dying in a car accident and aboutthe same as the probability of being killed by a lightning).In structures with a large traction-free crack at peak load (or a sharpnotch) the type II size effect is observed.1-'11 14-22 This is a purely deterministic size effect on the mean strength (while material randomnessaffects only the CoV). It becomes the strongest for large sizes and corresponds to LEFM (ie., aN oc D-112 ). As long as the failure modes for different sizes of geometrically scaled structures are also geometrically similar(which is often the case). the strength follows the Baiant size effect lawl-'11(l CSN Bft'-V2J(6.4)Here B is an empirical, dimensionless material constant ft.' is the localtensile strength of material, and D0 is a transitional size proportional tothe material characteristic length scale, which in tum is proportional tothe FPZ size. The size effect factor in Eq. 6.4, proposed to ACI (American Concrete Institute) in 1984, was in 2019 incorporated into the ACIdesign code (ASI Standard 318-2019) for beam shear, punching andstrut-and-tie model.The size effects of types I and II have been observed in concreteand in fiber-reinforced composites, aside from other quasibrittlematerials1-'11 (see Figs. 6.2 and 6.3). Both size effect laws consist of alength scale determined by the FPZ size, which is a material property.This length is essential for realistic mathematical prediction of structurestrength. The rest of thia chapter describes the fracturing behavior ofconcrete and fiber composites under various loading conditions whichleads to the formation of the FPZ. Most of these failure modes arequasibrittle, exhibit the R curve, transitional size effects on strength, andhybrid Gauss-Weibull probability distributions of strength.11.2 CONCRETE4Taata:3 0Nielson 19543 point Wright 19524 point Wright 19521 Inch Waker & Bloem 19572 Inch Waker & Bloem 1957Reagel & Willis 1931Sabnis & Mirza 1979Rokugo 19950Rocco 19954iJ,.0:IC.caa, 2c:D1ij !!!'CLindner 1956- - Staliatical formula, m 24. t fit of type I sizeeffect law10Normalized size100Flguni 6.l Type I size effect (measured fur concrete and composites)'[reproduced with permission from American Concrete Institllte (ACI)].1000Concrete in iu cured form may be treated as isotropic and homogeneous in the macroscopic sense. On the microstructural levd it is highlyheterogeneous, full of cracks of sizes at all scales from the nanoscaleup." Iu mechanical response depends highly on the confinement. Theuniaxial strength in tension, typically 4-5 MPa, is normally 8-10 timesweaker than in compression. This is because the aggregate pieces canwithstand large compressive stresses, but under tension the aggregatecement bond is much weaker.24.2511.2.1Streu-Strain CurwThe typical stress-strain curve ofconcrete24 under uniaxial compressionas well as tension is shown in Fig. 6.4. It consists of two stages-prepeakand postpeak. The initial part is linear elastic. As the load increases,formation of microcracks and frictional microslips induces a prepeaknoalinearity in the stress-strain curve, more pronounced in compression than tension.Beyond the peak, the uniaxial stress decreases gradually at increasing strain, which is called postpeak softening and can be observed in astable manner only in a testing machine with a sufficiently stiff frame.The stability of postpealt testing can be greatly enhanced by controllingsome displacement that is monotonically increasing (e.g., the crackopening displacement). Complete failure corresponds to stress reduction to zero. The area under the stress-strain curve represent. the energydissipated per unit volume.
