The paper presents a methodology for investigating fracture phenomena in sandstone. It shows the preparation of test specimens with a cyclic loading generated crack, control of the test specimen preparation and verification by means of x-ray microCT and digital image correlation (DIC) techniques. There are also presented tests studying tensile and fatigue characteristics of arkose sandstone used i. a. for the construction of the medieval Charles Bridge in Prague where weather induced tensile damage and failure occurred. Finally, the new methodology for pre-cracking of the specimens was verified experimentally and fracture toughness was computed.
