In particular, this paper analyzes the variations in the residual tensile strength of steel fiber-reinforced concretes following cyclic flexural loading, which causes a predefined level of damage. To do so, a total of 40 prismatic specimens were tested. The specimens were not notched, but had previously been subjected to precracking. This has a similar effect to notching, but with a much smaller radius around the edge of the crack, which is therefore more vulnerable to fatigue. The results show that the damage provokes a progressive reduction in the residual traction strength. The study proposes two numerical expressions for the stress–crack width softening curves under tensile loads: an exponential formulation and a potential formulation. In both cases, the coefficients of both formulations depend on the damage that is induced. In addition, the proposal is to use fitted curves of the above-mentioned potential type. application/pdf eng Wiley Structural Concrete. 2017, V. 19, n. 2, p. 340-351 https://doi.org/10.1002/suco.201600102 Fatigue Fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete High-strength concrete Residual tension strength Ingeniería civil Resistencia de materiales Civil engineering Strength of materials Postcracking residual strengths of fiber‐reinforced high‐performance concrete after cyclic loading info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Structural Concrete 19 2 340 351
