The contribution deals with finite element analysis of stress state in sub-sized pre-cracked three-point bend specimen (KLST). A studied material was Eurofer´97 steel. The true stress-true strain curve was obtained from tensile test. The three point bend tests were carried out on plain and side-grooved specimens at ambient temperature and were simulated using ABAQUS 6.10. The stress state in KLST specimen was compared with the stress state of standard specimen. The analysis confirmed the stress state in KLST specimens at the crack tip does not correspond to conditions of standard fracture toughness determination because loss of constraint.
