The damage and deformation characteristics of marbles subjected to high temperature and temperature-change were analyzed. The mechanical parameters were obtained from the static triaxial compression of marbles at different temperatures. The distributed parameters and critical damage were got by statistical damage constitutive model at different temperatures conditions, and the influence of temperature and temperature-change to the mechanical parameters was qualitatively analyzed. The results showed that temperature increment and temperature-change accelerated the damage to marble, but temperature increment had a greater influence to the parameters (such as distributed parameters m and ε, critical damage Dcr, et al ) than temperature-change.
