Estimation of the Fracture Toughness Threshold of a Ferritic Steel at the Lower Ductile to Brittle Transition Region
The ADN420 ferritic steel (A615 steel Grade 60 [420]), used as reinforcing bars (rebar) in concrete, shows the so called ductile to brittle transition. Room temperature is located on the lower third region of the transition zone. In this work, the fracture toughness of this steel working at room tem...
