The paper presents the basis of the analytical model for calcu-lating the loss of strength in ce-ment compositions exposed to elevated temperatures. This model is to replace the classical method of calculating the fire resistance of the loss of load-bearing capacity. The experimental data were taken as initial indicators. Based on the implemented calculations it would become possible to predict the occurrence of ultimate state by loss strength and the reliability of practical indicators obtained by means of full-scale tests
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
