Abstract:The size effect is a well-known phenomenon in the design of reinforced concrete structures. Although it has been studied extensively for conventional concrete with or without traditional reinforcement, its influence on the post-cracking behaviour of fibrereinforced composites is scarcely reported in literature. This is particularly true in the case of high performance fibre-reinforced concrete (HPFRC), which allows the design of very thin elements and whose behaviour may be highly influenced by their size.
