o:33297 Comparative analysis of the influence of size on the beams of different structures of concrete en Abstract: Application of fracture mechanics at design of RC buildings will provide significant benefit. It will contribute that different size of premises to have the same security. In this way, the security and the cost of construction will be enhanced. There will exist a greater possibility of applying new designs and materials. Especially in large RC buildings, as well as in high-strength premises, the premises made of concrete with the steel fibers, prestressed concrete, large concrete dams, nuclear power plants, the facilities that require high safety, whose damage can cause a disaster, the application of fracture mechanics is of great significance. The impact of size, which relies on mechanical fracture can be defined as the theory of fracture which for the design of RC elements take into account resistance and energy of fracture. Keywords—impact of size, compressive strength of concrete, fracture, interpolation, beam. 1552101 1583-0691 1552099 10.15660/auofmte.2014-2.3028 2024-03-27T13:14:06.577Z 44 no 46 Nazim Manić Državni univerzitet u Novom Pazaru 0000-0001-8346-8255 Mirsad Tarić person Veis Šerifi person Žana Džubur person application/pdf 388420 https://phaidrabg.bg.ac.rs/o:33297 no yes 1 70 92000001 20A01 Annals of the university of Oradea, Fascicle of Management and Technological Engineering 23 2 23 29 2014
