It is actually called weathering, but if your talking about the process of rocks breaking down into smaller pieces by physical means it is called Mechanical Weathering, by chemical means it is called Chemical Weathering.
it is called weathering; the rocks get weathered by wind, water, or earthquakes (main examples) and peices break off
Weathering.
The process called weathering is responsible for the breaking up and wearing away of the Earth's rocks. The broken up rocks are then carried away by the process of erosion.

Erosion due to weathering.
The process of the breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces by physical means is called mechanical weathering.
the process by which rocks break down into smaller pieces by physical means
roots penetrate into small cracks in rocks and they grow thy exert pressure on rocks breaking them
Soil is formed from rocks. When weathering breaks down rocks into smaller and smaller pieces you will get soil. This process takes thousands and thousands of years.
