Abstract :
As a new branch of mathematics, Fractal Geometry has been widely used in civil engineering field. This study investigated its relationship between internal fractal dimension of aggregate fracture and surface porosity after destruction of coral aggregate concrete under pressure, cutting reveals the micro level concrete aggregate injury characteristics.
