Cactus plants are prevalent in hot terrain locations. The spines in the cactus plants have an important function in preventing water evaporation. The strong pointed spines serve to distribute heat and prevent internal moisture loss owing to high heat. This paper addresses the biomimicking of a cactus plant to a reinforced concrete column. Columns are one of the most predominant elements in a structure and are responsible for maintaining the stability of the structure. Under the occurrences of fire, columns are the most affected, and the failure of the same could eventually steer to global collapse of the structure. In this study, various geometries were adopted based on the cactus plant, and the heat dissipation characteristics were studied. Finite element analysis was used to determine the optimal form based on the heat dissipation. The optimized shape was tested experimentally using a high-temperature localized heating element. Five column specimens were considered for experiments and named C (conventional nonheated column), C1 (conventional heated column), C2 (mimicked column), C3 (mimicked column with rebar in cone), and C4 (mimicked column with rebar in cone (quenching)). The heat-dissipating nature was observed, and the structural aspects were tested aftermath. The results reveal that the quenched specimen depicts better heat dissipation than the other specimens and eventually maintains the stability of the specimen throughout the height.
