Abstract
A series of 20 chevron cracked notched Brazilian disc (CCNBD) samples of Westerly granite were failed in a standard Mode I tensile test at room temperature in order to evaluate the effect of thermal damage on fracture toughness. The heat treatment involved slowly heating four sets of four samples to 250, 450, 650 and 850 °C. The fifth set of samples was not thermally treated. Thermal cracking not only induced a substantial decrease of the...
