Abstract A preliminary approach to the effect of H-induced crack, as an environment-induced defect, on the processes of material failure has been made. Experimental results show that, as a primary approximate, the H-induced crack may be considered as a set of face defects paralleling to the rolled plane, and it has only a little effect on the routine strength indices, but enhances the susceptibility to brittle fracture of materials. HIC and HSC are two kinds of cracking basically independent of each other. The decisive factor in the environmental fracture is the susceptibility to HSC of materials. The environmental fracture process for materials having both HSC and HIC susceptibility may be expressed by the schematic model diagram as suggested in this paper. This diagram can explain a series of experimental phenomena observed during the environmental fracture of structural steels with middle and low strength. In general, the equipment or structures made of HSC resistant materials may operate safely though they may have induced cracks.
