What is Fracture Mechanics in Quasibrittle Materials about?

This document provides an overview of fracture mechanics and the size effect in concrete and other quasibrittle materials. It summarizes the historical development of fracture mechanics from classical linear elastic fracture mechanics to more advanced continuum-based theories. It also discusses reasons for adopting a fracture mechanics approach, including the size effect where nominal strength depends on structural size. Experimental evidence of size effects is presented for both notched and unnotched struc
