The nature of microcracks formed in concrete under repeated uniaxial compressive loads are investigated by experiments on prismatic specimens. The distribution and orientation of cracks formed are studied by optical microscopic techniques. The basic failure mechanism of concrete at the phenomenologi
Preliminary to the study of the microcracks evolution in loaded concrete samples, it is necessary to know the initial state of this material. In this paper, first the possibilities of an indirect visualisation by single replica are presented. Then, this technique is used to study the initial state o
