Abstract: | The material under investigation was ordinary conerete of B 20 class, different in the sizes of coarse aggregate and water-cement ratio of the same value w/c=0.55. It was found during the tests that there were two kinds of sample cracking mechanisms. Some samples cracked at the moment of the initiation of slit (when P Q=P max); in others the decohesion force P max exceeded P Q, which was identified as a minor deflection or relative extremum of the curve. The frequency of the second type of cracking increased with the growing size of coarse aggregate grains. Together with the growth of the grain size, the angle of curve inclination also became smaller. This phenomenon can be explained by the fact that, in the process of decohesion, the aggregate grains are relocated and the system of contact between them changes, so the K Hc depends on coarse aggregate. |
