Abstract
Tensile strength constitutive laws for fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) are commonly defined through the parameters of flexural tests conducted on standard prismatic specimens. However, there are no specific criteria to determine such parameters using small specimens that could simplify the testing procedure and provide more representative results of slender structural FRC elements. In this line, the influence of size effect becomes an issue particularly relevant during the characterisation stage...
