A new Topical Collection has been published in Materials and Structures gathering the recommendations produced by the RILEM Technical Committee 265-TDK ‘Testing methods for determination of double-K criterion for crack propagation in concrete’. It consists of the following 4 recommendations:

RILEM Standard: testing methods for determination of the double-K criterion for crack propagation in concrete using wedge-splitting tests and three-point bending beam tests, recommendation of RILEM TC265-TDK

Influential factors for double-K fracture parameters analyzed by the round robin tests of RILEM TC265-TDK

The theoretical basis of testing methods to determine double-K criterion for crack propagation in concrete: technical report of the RILEM TC265-TDK

Results of round-robin testing for determining the double-K fracture parameters for crack propagation in concrete: technical report of the RILEM TC265-TDK
